The Stochastic Shortest Path Problem : A polyhedral combinatorics perspective
In this paper, we give a new framework for the stochastic shortest path problem in finite state and action spaces. Our framework generalizes both the frameworks proposed by Bertsekas and Tsitsiklis [7] and by Bertsekas and Yu [8]. We prove that the problem is well-defined and (weakly) polynomial when (i) there is a way to reach the target state from any initial state and (ii) there is no transi...
متن کاملVariations on the Stochastic Shortest Path Problem
In this invited contribution, we revisit the stochastic shortest path problem, and show how recent results allow one to improve over the classical solutions: we present algorithms to synthesize strategies with multiple guarantees on the distribution of the length of paths reaching a given target, rather than simply minimizing its expected value. The concepts and algorithms that we propose here ...
متن کاملDistributionally robust stochastic shortest path problem
This paper considers a stochastic version of the shortest path problem, the Distributionally Robust Stochastic Shortest Path Problem(DRSSPP) on directed graphs. In this model, the arc costs are deterministic, while each arc has a random delay. The mean vector and the second-moment matrix of the uncertain data are assumed known, but the exact information of the distribution is unknown. A penalty...
متن کاملStochastic Shortest Path Problem with Uncertain Delays
This paper considers a stochastic version of the shortest path problem, the Stochastic Shortest Path Problem with Delay Excess Penalty on directed, acyclic graphs. In this model, the arc costs are deterministic, while each arc has a random delay, assumed normally distributed. A penalty occurs when the given delay constraint is not satisfied. The objective is to minimize the sum of the path cost...
متن کاملShortest Monotone Descent Path Problem in Polyhedral Terrain
Given a polyhedral terrain with n vertices, the shortest monotone descent path problem deals with finding the shortest path between a pair of points, called source (s) and destination (t) such that the path is constrained to lie on the surface of the terrain, and for every pair of points p = (x(p), y(p), z(p)) and q = (x(q), y(q), z(q)) on the path, if dist(s,p) < dist(s, q) then z(p) z(q), whe...
