New dtControl2+$\\varepsilon$ method simplifies decision trees for Markov decision processes

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a new method called dtControl2+$\varepsilon$ to create smaller, more explainable decision trees for Markov decision processes. This technique allows for tunable simplification of controllers by introducing a controllable amount of imprecision ($\varepsilon$), resulting in decision trees that are orders of magnitude smaller than current state-of-the-art methods while maintaining $\varepsilon$-optimality.

    dtControl2+$\varepsilon$: Trading Optimality for Explainability in MDPs via Decision Trees

    Over the past decade, decision trees have been used to represent controllers (a.k.a. policies) in an explainable way, with dtControl2 as a current state-of-the-art tool. However, for systems that are large or have many corner cases, even such representations tend to be too comple…
