To address this issue, we propose a novel abstraction scheme for stochastic linear systems that exploits the system's stability to obtain significantly smaller abstract models.

In this paper, we propose a new model reduction technique for linear stochastic systems that builds upon knowledge filtering and utilizes optimal Kalman filtering techniques.

In particular, we show that the stochastic program to synthesize a SBF can be relaxed into a chance-constrained optimisation problem on which scenario approach theory applies.

In order to learn the optimal structure, we define a Kantorovich-inspired metric between Markov chains, and we use it as a loss function.

This iMDP is, with a user-specified confidence probability, robust against uncertainty in the transition probabilities, and the tightness of the probability intervals can be controlled through the number of samples.

We propose a sample-based, sequential method to abstract a (potentially black-box) dynamical system with a sequence of memory-dependent Markov chains of increasing size.

We consider the cases where the transition probabilities of this MDP are either known up to an interval or completely unknown.

Stochastic noise causes aleatoric uncertainty, whereas imprecise knowledge of model parameters leads to epistemic uncertainty.

Policy robustness in Reinforcement Learning may not be desirable at any cost: the alterations caused by robustness requirements from otherwise optimal policies should be explainable, quantifiable and formally verifiable.
