Provable Offline Reinforcement Learning for Structured Cyclic MDPs
Provable Offline Reinforcement Learning for Structured Cyclic MDPs arXiv:2602.11679v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce a novel cyclic Markov decision process (MDP) framework for multi-step decision problems with heterogeneous stage-specific dynamics, transitions, and discount factors across the cycle. In this setting, offline learning is challenging: optimizing a policy at any stage shifts the state distributions…

CROCS: A Two-Stage Clustering Framework for Behaviour-Centric Consumer Segmentation with Smart Meter Data
CROCS: A Two-Stage Clustering Framework for Behaviour-Centric Consumer Segmentation with Smart Meter Data arXiv:2601.10494v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With grid operators confronting rising uncertainty from renewable integration and a broader push toward electrification, Demand-Side Management (DSM) — particularly Demand Response (DR) — has attracted significant attention as a cost-effective mechanism for balancing modern electricity systems.…
