Neuro-dynamic programming: an overview
Abstract
We discuss a relatively new class of dynamic programming methods for control and sequential decision making under uncertainty. These methods have the potential of dealing with problems that for a long time were thought to be intractable due to either a large state space or the lack of an accurate model. The methods discussed combine ideas from the fields of neural networks, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, simulation, and approximation theory. We delineate the major conceptual issues, survey a number of recent developments, describe some computational experience, and address a number of open questions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
