Nearly optimal exploration-exploitation decision thresholds
While in general trading off exploration and exploitation in reinforcement learning is hard, under some formulations relatively simple solutions exist. Optimal decision thresholds ...

Optimal Maintenance Strategies for Wind Turbine Systems Under Stochastic Weather Conditions
Abstract--We examine optimal repair strategies for wind turbines operated under stochastic weather conditions. In-situ sensors installed at wind turbines produce useful information...

Functional Value Iteration for Decision-Theoretic Planning with General Utility Functions
We study how to find plans that maximize the expected total utility for a given MDP, a planning objective that is important for decision making in high-stakes domains. The optimal...
