Values

PURPOSE

Belief value with all alpha-elements in the Policy.

SYNOPSIS

function v=Values(P,b)

DESCRIPTION

   Belief value with all alpha-elements in the Policy.

   Return the values of the given belief, b, for all the elements stored
   in the Policy, P.
   Recall that the optimal element for a belief is the one maximizing its
   value, i.e., the one maximizing the output of this function.

   See also MaxAlpha, OptimalAction.

CROSS-REFERENCE INFORMATION

This function calls:

Expectation Expectation between a belief and a alpha-element.

This function is called by:

MaxAlpha Returns the maximizing alpha-element for a belief.
OptimalAction Returns the optimal action for a given belief.
DiscretizeObsModel Discretizes the observation model on the observation side.
