Bounded Planning in Passive POMDPs

Machine Learning 2012-07-03 v1 Artificial Intelligence Machine Learning

Abstract

In Passive POMDPs actions do not affect the world state, but still incur costs. When the agent is bounded by information-processing constraints, it can only keep an approximation of the belief. We present a variational principle for the problem of maintaining the information which is most useful for minimizing the cost, and introduce an efficient and simple algorithm for finding an optimum.
