Discrete Actions in Information-constrained Tracking Problems
Optimal actions of an agent facing a Shannon capacity constraint on the translation of an uncertain signal into an action can easily turn out to be discretely distributed, even when the objective function and the initial distribution of uncertainty contain no discrete elements. We show this result analytically in a broad class of cases. It has implications for the interpretation of observed int...
متن کاملInformation-Constrained Discrete Choice∗
It is not unusual in real-life that one has to choose among finitely many alternatives when the merits of each alternative are not perfectly known. A natural rule is then to choose the alternative which “looks” best. We show that a version of the monotone likelihood ratio property is sufficient, and also essentially necessary, for this decision rule to be optimal. We also analyze how the precis...
متن کاملConstrained Control Problems of Discrete Processes
In undergoing this life, many people always try to do and get the best. New knowledge, experience, lesson, and everything that can improve the life will be done. However, many people sometimes feel confused to get those things. Feeling the limited of experience and sources to be better is one of the lacks to own. However, there is a very simple thing that can be done. This is what your teacher ...
متن کاملDiscrete profile alignment via constrained information bottleneck
Amino acid profiles, which capture position-specific mutation probabilities, are a richer encoding of biological sequences than the individual sequences themselves. However, profile comparisons are much more computationally expensive than discrete symbol comparisons, making profiles impractical for many large datasets. Furthermore, because they are such a rich representation, profiles can be di...
متن کاملContinuous Opinions and Discrete Actions in Opinion Dynamics Problems
A model where agents show discrete behavior regarding their actions, but have continuous opinions that are updated by interacting with other agents is presented. This new updating rule is applied to both the voter and Sznajd models for interaction between neighbors, and its consequences are discussed. The appearance of extremists is naturally observed and it seems to be a characteristic of this...
