Fast Decision-Making Under Time And Resource Constraints, Kyle Gabriel Lassak
Fast Decision-Making Under Time And Resource Constraints, Kyle Gabriel Lassak
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports
Practical decision makers are inherently limited by computational and memory resources as well as the time available in which to make decisions. To cope with these limitations, humans actively seek methods which limit their resource demands by exploiting structure within the environment and exploiting a coupling between their sensing and actuation to form heuristics for fast decision-making. To date, such behavior has not been replicated in artificial agents. This research explores how heuristics may be incorporated into the decision-making process to quickly make high-quality decisions through the analysis of a prominent case study: the outfielder problem. In the outfielder problem, …
