Published in 2020 at "Finance and Stochastics"

DOI: 10.1007/s00780-020-00443-2

Abstract: We study Markov decision processes with Borel state spaces under quasi-hyperbolic discounting. This type of discounting nicely models human behaviour, which is time-inconsistent in the long run. The decision maker has preferences changing in time.… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications"

DOI: 10.1007/s10957-021-01968-y

Abstract: This work concerns with semi-Markov decision chains evolving on a finite state space. The controller has a positive and constant risk sensitivity coefficient, and the performance of a control policy is measured by the risk-sensitive… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Mobile Networks and Applications"

DOI: 10.1007/s11036-020-01522-6

Abstract: In mobile crowd-sensing, smartphone users take part in sensing and then share the data to the server (cloud) and get an incentive. These data can be utilized for providing better services to improve quality of… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Dynamic Games and Applications"

DOI: 10.1007/s13235-021-00391-2

Abstract: In this paper, we study two-person zero-sum stochastic games for controlled continuous time Markov decision processes with risk-sensitive discounted cost criterion. The transition and cost rates are possibly unbounded. For the zero-sum stochastic game, we… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Advances in Applied Probability"

DOI: 10.1017/apr.2018.36

Abstract: Abstract In this paper we investigate risk-sensitive semi-Markov decision processes with a Borel state space, unbounded cost rates, and general utility functions. The performance criteria are several expected utilities of the total cost in a… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences"

DOI: 10.1017/s0269964824000044

Abstract: We focus on exponential semi-Markov decision processes with unbounded transition rates. We first provide several sufficient conditions under which the value iteration procedure converges to the optimal value function and optimal deterministic stationary policies exist.… read more here.
