POMDPs for Fun and Profit

Nick Roy

Abstract

 
    The time has come, the walrus said,
    To speak of many things.
    Of PCA and particles,
    Of exponential things.
    If POMDPs can *ever* be solved,
    and whether pigs have wings.

    (With apologies to Lewis Carroll.)

I will talk about how one might solve large POMDPs by making them smaller, and what this means for how you solve them. I will show robots doing dumb (and smart) things. Sadly, I will not show pictures of pigs with wings.
