Network Epidemic Control via Model Predictive Control: Extended Version
Mahtab Talaei, Alex Olshevsky, Laura F. White +1
Balancing the societal costs of non-pharmaceutical interventions with epidemic suppression requires adaptive feedback control. Rather than relying on state-dependent operational ca…
Geometric Re-Analysis of Classical MDP Solving Algorithms
Arsenii Mustafin, Aleksei Pakharev, Alex Olshevsky +1
We build on a recently introduced geometric interpretation of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) to analyze classical MDP-solving algorithms: Value Iteration (VI) and Policy Iteratio…
Analysis of Value Iteration Through Absolute Probability Sequences
Arsenii Mustafin, Sebastien Colla, Alex Olshevsky +1
Value Iteration is a widely used algorithm for solving Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). While previous studies have extensively analyzed its convergence properties, they primarily…
Network-Based Epidemic Control Through Optimal Travel and Quarantine Management
Mahtab Talaei, Apostolos I. Rikos, Alex Olshevsky +2
Motivated by the swift global transmission of infectious diseases, we present a comprehensive framework for network-based epidemic control. Our aim is to curb epidemics using two d…
Visually Robust Adversarial Imitation Learning from Videos with Contrastive Learning
Vittorio Giammarino, James Queeney, Ioannis Ch. Paschalidis
We propose C-LAIfO, a computationally efficient algorithm designed for imitation learning from videos in the presence of visual mismatch between agent and expert domains. We analyz…
MDP Geometry, Normalization and Reward Balancing Solvers
Arsenii Mustafin, Aleksei Pakharev, Alex Olshevsky +1
We present a new geometric interpretation of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with a natural normalization procedure that allows us to adjust the value function at each state witho…
