  • Big Data

    Does Size Matter?

    by Ms Timandra Harkness ...
    What is Big Data, and why should you care?Big data knows where you've been and who your friends are. It knows what you like and what makes you angry. It can predict what you'll buy, where you'll be the victim of crime and when you'll have a heart attack. Big data knows you better than you know yourself, or so it claims.But how well do you know big data?You've probably seen the phrase in newspaper ... Read more

    We seem to have forgotten how to argue about important things without descending into tribalism, insults, and generally thinking the worst of our opponents. This is no good. We'll never get out of the bitter divisions cleaving society if we don't learn to disagree fruitfully.In this series, Timandra Harkness explores the best ways to disagree with other people - constructively.She examines how ...

  • Simulation-Based Algorithms for Markov Decision Processes

    by Hyeong Soo Chang, Jiaqiao Hu, Michael C. Fu, Steven I. Marcus ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Markov decision process (MDP) models are widely used for modeling sequential decision-making problems that arise in engineering, economics, computer science, and the social sciences. Many real-world problems modeled by MDPs have huge state and/or action spaces, giving an opening to the curse of dimensionality and so making practical solution of the resulting models intractable. In other cases, the ... Read more

  • General Pontryagin-Type Stochastic Maximum Principle and Backward Stochastic Evolution Equations in Infinite Dimensions

    by Xu Zhang, Qi Lü ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    The classical Pontryagin maximum principle (addressed to deterministic finite dimensional control systems) is one of the three milestones in modern control theory. The corresponding theory is by now well-developed in the deterministic infinite dimensional setting and for the stochastic differential equations. However, very little is known about the same problem but for controlled stochastic ... Read more

  • Discrete–Time Stochastic Control and Dynamic Potential Games

    The Euler–Equation Approach

    by David González-Sánchez, Onésimo Hernández-Lerma ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    There are several techniques to study noncooperative dynamic games, such as dynamic programming and the maximum principle (also called the Lagrange method). It turns out, however, that one way to characterize dynamic potential games requires to analyze inverse optimal control problems, and it is here where the Euler equation approach comes in because it is particularly well–suited to solve inverse ...
