Approximation of Markov processes by lower dimensional processes
Tzortzis, I.; Charalambous, Charalambos D.; Charalambous, T.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Johansson, M. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014)In this paper, we investigate the problem of aggregating a given finite-state Markov process by another process with fewer states. The aggregation utilizes total variation distance as a measure of discriminating the Markov ...
