Chapter 1. Decision-Making: Concepts, Principles, and Uncertainty. Objective. This first chapter introduces the reader to the meaning of decision-making, the main concepts associated with decision processes, and the decision analysis workflow.
In a Dec-POMDP, the dynamics of the system and the objective function depend on the actions of all agents, but each agent must make decisions based on local information. We first present the model, discuss an example problem, and outline two forms of solution representations. 7.1.1 DecentralizedPOMDPs.
Introduction. Decision analysis is a scientific discipline comprising a collection of principles and methods aiming to help individuals, groups of individuals, or organizations in the performance of difficult decisions.
A decision matrix is a chart that allows a team or individual to systematically identify, analyze, and rate the strength of relationships between sets of information. The matrix is especially useful for
