dc.description.abstract We describe a method to use structured representations of the environment’s dynamics to constrain and speed up the planning process. Given a problem domain described in a probabilistic logical description language, we develop an anytime technique that incrementally improves on an initial, partial policy. This partial solution is found by first reducing the number of predicates needed to represent a relaxed version of the problem to a minimum, and then dynamically partitioning the action space into a set of equivalence classes with respect to this minimal representation. Our approach uses the envelope MDP framework, which creates a Markov decision process out of a subset of the full state space as de- termined by the initial partial solution. This strategy permits an agent to begin acting within a restricted part of the full state space and to expand its envelope judiciously as resources permit. en_US
