Properties of the QBG-value Function. IAS technical report IAS-UVA-07-04, Intelligent Systems Lab, University of Amsterdam, 2007. DownloadAbstractIn this technical report we treat some properties of the recently introduced QBG-value function. In particular we show that it is a piecewise linear and convex function over the space of joint beliefs. Furthermore, we show that there exists an optimal infinite-horizon QBG-value function, as the QBG backup operator is a contraction mapping. We conclude by noting that the optimal Dec-POMDP Q-value function cannot be defined over joint beliefs. BibTeX Entry@TECHREPORT{Oliehoek07TR_QBGprops, author = {Frans A.
