It is standard to impose the following simplifying assumptions and notation of the dynamic decision problem: 1. Flow utility is additively separable and linear in parameters. The flow utility can be written as an additive sum, consisting of deterministic and stochastic elements.
Criterium DecisionPlus is decision-making software that is based on multi-criteria decision making. The software implements the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) [1] and the Simple Multi-Attribute Rating Technique (SMART) [2] [3] and has been used in fields such as materials science [4] and environmental management. [5] [6] [7]
A decision without a Boolean operator is a condition. A decision does not imply a change of control flow, e.g. an assignment of a boolean expression to a variable is a decision for MC/DC. Condition coverage Every condition in a decision in the program has taken all possible outcomes at least once. Decision coverage
The dynamic programming method breaks this decision problem into smaller subproblems. Bellman's principle of optimality describes how to do this: Principle of Optimality: An optimal policy has the property that whatever the initial state and initial decision are, the remaining decisions must constitute an optimal policy with regard to the state ...
Dynamic decision making research uses computer simulations which are laboratory analogues for real-life situations. These computer simulations are also called “microworlds” [4] and are used to examine people's behavior in simulated real world settings where people typically try to control a complex system where later decisions are affected by earlier decisions. [5]
A partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) is a generalization of a Markov decision process (MDP). A POMDP models an agent decision process in which it is assumed that the system dynamics are determined by an MDP, but the agent cannot directly observe the underlying state.
From a dynamic programming point of view, Dijkstra's algorithm for the shortest path problem is a successive approximation scheme that solves the dynamic programming functional equation for the shortest path problem by the Reaching method. [8] [9] [10] In fact, Dijkstra's explanation of the logic behind the algorithm, [11] namely Problem 2.
For a better idea on decision vertices, refer to Figure 1. If the game has perfect information, every information set contains only one member, namely the point actually reached at that stage of the game, since each player knows the exact mix of chance moves and player strategies up to the current point in the game. Otherwise, it is the case ...
