2 Motivation Planning Under Uncertainty Scenario: Travel to the airport T a x i Travel time i uncertain... Goal: Arrive before the flight depart!!2 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

3 Motivation Traveling with Computer Scientit Model trip to airport a a Markov deciion proce (MDP) Controlable nondeterminim 0.7 Probabilitic branching Maximie probability to arrive before the flight depart Pr( 3h) Other type of cot play a role a well: Maximize Pr( 50 ) fuel, pollution, tre, waiting time, !3 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

4 Multi-objective Model Checking Analye Tradeoff Between Objective.0 Arrive within 3 hour v. Invet le than 50 Pr( 3h) T a x i Pareto Curve Pr( 50 )!4 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

5 Overview α MDP with Multiple Objective Linear Programming Approach fin() = fout() for all S / S y,α,t 0 for all,t S, α Act() Σ S-i Σα Act() Σt S+i y,α,t pi for all i {,, m} Weighted Sum Approach!5 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

6 Markov Deciion Procee (MDP) Markov deciion proce M = (S, Act, P, init) Nondeterminim Probabilitic branching Randomied Policy S reolve nondeterminim: S(π)(α) = "Probability to chooe action α when oberving finite path π" init α β Probability meaure Pr S : Pr S ( G) = "Probability to reach G under S" !6 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

7 MDP with Multiple Objective Single-objective: maximal probability Prmax( G) max S Pr S ( G) Multi-objective: tradeoff Prmax( G) v. Prmax( G2) v.... There i not a ingle policy that maximie all probabilitie init α β !7 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

8 Geometry p = (p,, pm) R m i a point in m N dimenional Euclidean pace p[i] refer to pi R Let p,q R m and λ R p q hold iff p[i] q[i] for all i {,, m} p < q hold iff p q and p q λ p (λ p[],, λ p[m]) R m (calar multiplication) p q Σ i m p[i] q[i] R (dot product) Definition: A et B R m i convex iff p,q B implie λ p + (-λ) q B for all 0 λ.!8 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

9 Achievable Point Definition: For MDP M = (S, Act, P, init) let Π, Π2,, Πm Path(M) be m meaurable et of path, and ~, ~2,, ~m {<,,, >}. A point p [0,] m R m i called achievable iff there i a (randomied) policy S.t. Pr S (Πi) ~i p[i] for all i {,, m}. We alo ay that point p i achieved by policy S A( Πi,~i m) denote the et of achievable point Example: α 0.8 α Pr( G2) A( G,, G2, ) p Pr( G)!9 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

10 Achievable Point Lemma: The et of achievable point A( Πi, ~i m) i convex. Proof (ketch): Let p, q in A( Πi, ~i m), i.e., p and q are achieved by ome policie Sp and Sq. For any λ [0,], the point λ p + (-λ) q i achieved by the randomied policy S which initially flip a coin: With probability λ, it mimic policy Sp With probability -λ, it mimic policy Sq!0 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

11 Multi-Objective Reachability For implicity, we only conider maximiing reachability probabilitie, i.e., Πi = Gi for goal-tate Gi S ~i = We imply write A( Gi m) intead of A( Gi, m) A( Gi m) i downward cloed, i.e., p A( Gi m) and p q implie q A( Gi m)! Multi-objective Verification of MDP

12 Pareto Curve Definition: Let A( Gi m) be a et of achievable point. q R m dominate p R m, iff q > p. p A( Gi m) i Pareto optimal, iff no q A( Gi m) dominate p, i.e., q A( Gi m) implie q p. P( Gi m) { p p i Pareto optimal } i the Pareto curve.!2 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

14 Policy Requirement In general, we need policie with randomiation and finite memory, e.g.: α β t u (0.5, 0.5) A( {t}, {u})? Only with randomied policy S()(α) = S()(β) = 0.5 t α β u (, ) A( {t}, {u})? γ Only with finite-memory policy S(π)(α) =, if π ha not viited {t}, yet {0, otherwie!4 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

15 Goal-unfolding A policy might need to memorie which et Gi ha been reached already Idea: Encode thi information into the tate-pace. Then, poitional (randomied) policie uffice t α β u t α β u γ γ t α β u t α β u γ γ!5 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

19 Goal-unfolding Definition: The goal-unfolding of MDP M = (S, Act, P, init) and G,, Gm S \ {init} i the MDP MU = (S {0,} m, Act, PU, init, (0,, 0) ), where and for i {,, m}: PU(,b, α, t,c ) = ucc(b,t)[i] = P(, α, t), if c = ucc(b,t) { 0, otherwie {, if t G i b[i], otherwie The ize of MU i polynomial in the ize of M and exponential in m!9 Multi-objective Verification of MDP

20 Goal-unfolding Lemma: p i achievable in M iff p i achievable in MU. To anwer a multi-objective query for M, we can analye MU intead Lemma: p i achievable in MU iff p i achieved by a poitional policy. For the analyi of MU we only need to conider poitional policie!20 Multi-objective Verification of MDP
