Discounted Markov decision processes via time aggregation

Discounted Markov decision processes via time aggregation

This paper applies two-phase time aggregation to solve discounted Markov decision processes (MDP). This procedure, recently proposed for average cost MDPs, is extended here discounted MDPs with a view at easing the computational burden associated to finding a quality solution within a reasonable time frame. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the results.

Abstract

This paper applies two-phase time aggregation to solve discounted Markov decision processes (MDP). This procedure, recently proposed for average cost MDPs, is extended here discounted MDPs with a view at easing the computational burden associated to finding a quality solution within a reasonable time frame. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the results.
