In that direction we utilize methods for treating Risk Sensitive Multiple Goal Markov Decision Processes (RSMGMDPs) where the performance index is given by sums of expected utilities, where each utility is applied to a different running cost, but also methods from the theory of Risk Sensitive Constrained Markov Decision Processes (RSCMDPs).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-08-13T21:46:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "93E20" ], "keywords": [ "markov decision processes", "risk sensitive multiple goal stochastic", "sensitive multiple goal stochastic optimization" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
