Monte Carlo Tree Search with Boltzmann Exploration

Michael Painter, Mohamed Baioumy, Nick Hawes +1

Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) methods, such as Upper Confidence Bound applied to Trees (UCT), are instrumental to automated planning techniques. However, UCT can be slow to explor…

Beta Residuals: Improving Fault-Tolerant Control for Sensory Faults via Bayesian Inference and Precision Learning

Mohamed Baioumy, William Hartemink, Riccardo M. G. Ferrari +1

Model-based fault-tolerant control (FTC) often consists of two distinct steps: fault detection & isolation (FDI), and fault accommodation. In this work we investigate posing fault-…

On Solving a Stochastic Shortest-Path Markov Decision Process as Probabilistic Inference

Mohamed Baioumy, Bruno Lacerda, Paul Duckworth +1

Previous work on planning as active inference addresses finite horizon problems and solutions valid for online planning. We propose solving the general Stochastic Shortest-Path Mar…
