The Secretary Problem under Partially Predictable Demand
In this section, we study the online secretary problem under our new arrival model. In our setting, the secretary problem corresponds to having one unit of inventory, i.e., b = 1, and n customers, where v_{I,j} \in \mathbb {R}^{+} for 1\le j \le n, i.e., we relax the assumption that there are only two types. The object...

(i) In Sec., the underlying state is modeled as a Markov chain and the adaptive polling problem is formulated as a POMDP. Open loop polling, where polling at a particular instant is not influenced by the information previously collected, is ineffective when the states evolve over time. In comparison, the proposed adapt...

The instantaneous cost C(\pi ,u) in (REF ) incurred by the pollster in case of adaptive expectation polling is thus given as: C(\pi ,u) = S(u) + \eta _2(\pi ,u) The cost (REF ) expressed in terms of the belief state \pi models the fact that asking the nodes at level i to provide information on the opinions of nodes ...
