摘要

En 中文
This article investigates Markov decision processes (MDPs) with intermittent state information. We consider a scenario where the controller perceives the state of the process via an unreliable communication channel. The transmissions of state information over the whole time horizon are modeled as a Bernoulli lossy process. Hence, the problem is finding an optimal policy for selecting actions in the presence of state information losses. We first formulate the problem as a belief MDP to establish structural results. The effect of state information losses on the expected total discounted reward is studied systematically. Then, we reformulate the problem as a tree MDP whose state space is organized in a tree structure. Two finite-state approximations to the tree MDP are developed to find near-optimal policies efficiently. Finally, we put forth a nested value iteration algorithm for the two approximations, which is proved to be faster than standard value iteration. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods.
