A note on belief structures and S-approximation spaces
We study relations between evidence theory and S-approximation spaces. Both theories have their roots in the analysis of Dempster's multivalued mappings and lower and upper probabilities and have close relations to rough sets. We show that an S-approximation space, satisfying a monotonicity condition, can induce a natural belief structure which is a fundamental block in evidence theory. We also demonstrate that one can induce a natural belief structure on one set, given a belief structure on another set if those sets are related by a partial monotone S-approximation space.

Invariance and hierarchy-equivalence
Two type structures are hierarchy-equivalent if they induce the same set of hierarchies of beliefs. This note shows that the behavioral implications of "cautious rationality and common cautious belief in cautious rationa…

As a primary contribution, we present a convergence theorem for stochastic iterations, and in particular, Q-learning iterates, under a general, possibly non-Markovian, stochastic environment. Our conditions for convergen…

Informational Robustness of Common Belief in Rationality
In this note, I explore the implications of informational robustness under the assumption of common belief in rationality. That is, predictions for incomplete-information games which are valid across all possible informa…

We generalize recent theoretical work on the minimal number of layers of narrow deep belief networks that can approximate any probability distribution on the states of their visible units arbitrarily well. We relax the s…
