Control systems and methods using a partially-observable markov decision process (PO-MDP)
First Claim
1. A method for controlling at least a part of a microprocessor system, the method comprising:
- based at least in part on objectives of at least one electronic attack, using a partially observable Markov decision process (PO-MDP) to provide a model of at least part of the microprocessor system, the PO-MDP including a controller, the controller comprising;
an estimation policy to recursively generate a state estimate at stage k based on a state estimate at stage k−
1, a control at stage k−
1, and an observation at stage k, and, a response policy to select a control at stage k based on the state estimate at stage k, and cause the selected control to be provided to at least a part of the microprocessor system.

Abstract
Methods and systems for controlling at least a part of a microprocessor system, that include, based at least in part on objectives of at least one electronic attack, using a partially observable Markov decision process (PO-MDP) to provide a model of at least part of the microprocessor system, the PO-MDP including a controller, the controller including an estimation policy to recursively generate a state estimate at stage k based on a state estimate at stage k−1, a control at stage k−1, and an observation at stage k, and, a response policy to select a control at stage k based on the state estimate at stage k, and cause the selected control to be provided to at least a part of the microprocessor system.
