A Safe Bayesian Learning Algorithm for Constrained MDPs with Bounded Constraint Violation

AISTATS 2025poster

Constrained Markov decision processes (CMDPs) models are increasingly important in many applications with multiple objectives. When the model is unknown and must be learned online, it is desirable to ensure that the constraint is met, or at least the violation is bounded with time. In recent literat…

Optimal control of partially observable Markov decision processes with finite linear temporal logic constraints

UAI 2022poster

Autonomous agents often operate in environments where the state is partially observed. In addition to maximizing their cumulative reward, agents must execute complex tasks with rich temporal and logical structures. These tasks can be expressed using temporal logic languages like finite linear tempo…

A Sample-Efficient Algorithm for Episodic Finite-Horizon MDP with Constraints

AAAI 2021technical

Constrained Markov decision processes (CMDPs) formalize sequential decision-making problems whose objective is to minimize a cost function while satisfying constraints on various cost functions. In this paper, we consider the setting of episodic fixed-horizon CMDPs. We propose an online algorithm wh…
