SOURCE-LINKED INTELLIGENCE

Windowed A-K-MDP

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 12, 2026 · UTC

Markov decision processes (MDPs) are used to support decision-making in conservation of biodiversity, but policies, even over small state spaces, can be difficult to interpret for conservation managers. K-MDP methods address this problem by building simpler MDPs with at most K abstract states. We show that the previously proposed A-K-MDP algorithm that relies on selecting a discretisation divisor using binary search can skip better abstract states. To fix this issue, we propose Windowed A-K-MDP, an algorithm that generates every distinct feasible partition induced within a declared divisor win
