英文摘要 | In this paper we consider the weighted reward Markov decision process, with perturbation. The "weighted reward" refers to appropriately normalized convex combination of the discounted and the long-run average reward criteria. This criterion allows the controller to trade-off short-term costs versus long-term costs. In every application where both the discounted and the long-run average criteria have been proposed in the past, there is clearly a rationale for considering the weighted criterion. Of course, as with all Markov decision models, the standard weighted criterion model assumes that all the transition probabilities are known precisely. Since, in most applications this would not be the case, we consider the perturbed version of the weighted reward model. We prove that in most cases a nearly optimal control can be found in the class of relatively simple "ultimately deterministic" controls. These are controls which behave just like deterministic stationary controls, after a certain point of time. |
