State observation accuracy and finite-memory policy performance

State observation accuracy and finite-memory policy performance

Assuming the probability of an inaccurate state observation is sufficiently small, we present a simple procedure for determining whether a stationary finite-memory controller will improve or degrade system performance, given improved state observation quality. The intent of this result is to lend in...

Zusammenfassung:Assuming the probability of an inaccurate state observation is sufficiently small, we present a simple procedure for determining whether a stationary finite-memory controller will improve or degrade system performance, given improved state observation quality. The intent of this result is to lend insight into whether or not to invest in improved state observation quality.
