Zihinsel Sağlık için Markov Karar Süreci Yaklaşımı

Zihin belirli bir olayı hatırlama, bilgiyi proses etme ve maruz kaldığı bilgiye tepki verme gibi çeşitli fonksiyonlara sahiptir. Depresyon boyunca zihin, kendisini sürekli olarak meşgul eden gereksiz düşüncelerden dolayı verimli bir şekilde çalışmaz. Bu makalede, şu iki karara odaklanarak depresyon boyunca nasıl tepki verilmesi gerektiği problemini çalışmaktayız: gereksiz düşüncelerin zihin üzerindeki etkisini ihmal etme ve depresyonu çözmeye çalışma. Depresyon boyunca nasıl tepki verilmesi gerektiği problemini Markov Karar Süreci ile modellemekteyiz ve problemi optimal olarak çözmekteyiz. Ayrıca çeşitli senaryolar altında şu iki kolay-kullanılabilir karar kurallarının performansını test etmekteyiz: her zaman ihmal etme ve her zaman çözmeye çalışma.

A MARKOV DECISION PROCESS APPROACH FOR MENTAL HEALTH

Mind has various functions such as remembering a certain event, processing information,and providing responses to information it faces. During depression, mind does not work in an efficientway because of wasteful thoughts constantly occupying it. In this paper, we study the problem of how toreact during depression, focusing on two decisions: ignoring the effects of wasteful thoughts on mind,and attempting to resolve depression. We model the problem of how to react during depression as aMarkov Decision Process and solve it optimally. We also test the performance of two easy-to-usedecision rules under diverse scenarios: always ignoring and always attempting to resolve.
