Optimal online selection of an alternating subsequence: a central limit theorem
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: We analyze the optimal policy for the sequential selection of an alternating subsequence from a sequence of independent observations from a continuous distribution , and we prove a central limit theorem for the number of selections made by that policy. The proof exploits the backward recursion of dynamic programming and assembles a detailed understanding of the associated value functions and selection rules.
