Query: Simultaneous Perception-Action Design via Invariant Finite Belief Sets   Although perception is an increasingly dominant portion of the overall
computational cost for autonomous systems, only a fraction of the information
perceived is likely to be relevant to the current task. To alleviate these
perception costs, we develop a novel simultaneous perception-action design
framework wherein an agent senses only the task-relevant information. This
formulation differs from that of a partially observable Markov decision
process, since the agent is free to synthesize not only its policy for action
selection but also its belief-dependent observation function. The method
enables the agent to balance its perception costs with those incurred by
operating in its environment. To obtain a computationally tractable solution,
we approximate the value function using a novel method of invariant finite
belief sets, wherein the agent acts exclusively on a finite subset of the
continuous belief space. We solve the approximate problem through value
iteration in which a linear program is solved individually for each belief
state in the set, in each iteration. Finally, we prove that the value
functions, under an assumption on their structure, converge to their continuous
state-space values as the sample density increases.
