POMDPs for Fun and Profit

Abstract

The time has come, the walrus said,
To speak of many things.
Of PCA and particles,
Of exponential things.
If POMDPs can *ever* be solved,
and whether pigs have wings.

(With apologies to Lewis Carroll.)

I will talk about how one might solve large POMDPs by making them smaller, and what this means for how you solve them. I will show robots doing dumb (and smart) things. Sadly, I will not show pictures of pigs with wings.
