Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation is set in the context of a widely used framework for formalizing autonomous decision-making, namely Markov decision processes (MDPs). One of the key problems that arise in MDPs is that of evaluating a decision-making strategy, typically called a policy. It is often the case that data collected under the policy one wishes to evaluate is difficult or even impossible to obtain. In this case, data collected under some other policy needs to be used, a setting known as off-policy evaluation. The main goal of this dissertation is to offer new insights into the properties of methods for off-policy evaluation. This is achieved through a series of novel theoretical results and empirical illustrations. The first set of results concerns the bandit setting (single state, single decision step MDPs). In this basic setting, the bias and variance of various off-policy estimators can be computed in closed form without resorting to approximations. We also compare the bias-variance trade-offs for the different estimators, both theoretically and empirically. In the sequential setting (more than one decision step), a comparative empirical study of different off-policy estimators for MDPs with discrete state and action spaces is conducted. The methods compared include three existing estimators, and two new ones proposed in this dissertation. All of these estimators are shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal. The empirical study illustrates how the relative behaviour of the estimators is affected by changes in problem parameters. The analysis for discrete MDPs is completed by recursive bias and variance formulas for the commonly used model-based estimator. These are the first analytic formulas for finite-horizon MDPs, and are shown to produce more accurate results than bootstrap estimates. The final contribution consists of introducing a new framework for bounding the return of a policy. The framework can be used whenever bounds on the next state and reward are available, regardless of whether the state and action spaces are discrete or continuous. If the next-state bounds are computed by assuming Lipschitz continuity of the transition function and using a batch of sampled transitions, then our framework can lead to tighter bounds than those proposed in previous work. Throughout this dissertation, the empirical performance of the estimators being studied is illustrated on several computational sustainability problems: a model of food-related greenhouse gas emissions, a mallard population dynamics model, and a fishery management domain.<br>Cette thèse se situe dans le contexte d'un cadre largement utilisé pour formaliser les méchanismes autonomes de décision, à savoir les processus de décision markoviens (MDP). L'un des principaux problèmes qui se posent dans les MDP est celui de l'évaluation d'une stratégie de prise de décision, généralement appelée une politique. C'est souvent le cas qu'obtenir des données recueillies dans le cadre de la politique qu'on souhaite évaluer est difficile, ou même impossible. Dans ce cas, des données recueillies sous une autre politique doivent être utilisées, une situation appelée "évaluation hors-politique". L'objectif principal de cette thèse est de proposer un nouvel éclairage sur les propriétés des méthodes pour l'évaluation hors-politique. Ce résultat est obtenu grâce à une série de nouveaux résultats théoriques et illustrations empiriques. La première série de résultats concerne des problèmes de type bandit (des MDP avec un seul état et une seule étape de décision). Dans cette configuration, le biais et la variance de divers estimateurs hors-politique peuvent être calculés sous forme fermée sans avoir recours à des approximations. Nous comparons également le compromis biais-variance pour les différents estimateurs, du point de vue théorique et empirique. Dans le cadre séquentiel (plus d'une étape de décision), une étude empirique comparative des différents estimateurs hors-politique pour les MDP avec des états et des actions discrètes est menée. Les méthodes comparées sont trois estimateurs existants, ainsi que deux nouveaux proposés dans cette thèse. Tous ces estimateurs se sont avérés convergents et asymptotiquement normaux. L'étude empirique montre comment le comportement relatif des estimateurs est affecté par des changements aux paramètres du problème. L'analyse des MDP discrets est complétée par des formules récursives pour le biais et la variance pour l'estimateur basé sur le modèle. Ce sont les premières formules analytiques pour les MDP à horizon fini, et on montre qu'ils produisent des résultats plus précis que les estimations "bootstrap".La contribution finale consiste à introduire un nouveau cadre pour délimiter le retour d'une politique. Le cadre peut être utilisé chaque fois que des bornes sur le prochain état et la récompense sont disponibles, indépendamment du fait que les espaces d'état et d'action soient discrètes ou continues. Si les limites du prochain état sont calculées en supposant la continuité Lipschitz de la fonction de transition et en utilisant un échantillon de transitions, notre cadre peut conduire à des bornes plus strictes que celles qui sont proposées dans des travaux antérieurs.Tout au long de cette thèse, la performance empirique des estimateurs étudiés est illustrée sur plusieurs problèmes de durabilité: un modèle de calcul des émissions de gaz à effet de serre associées à la consommation de nourriture, un modèle dynamique de la population des mallards, et un domaine de gestion de la pêche.

Abstract:
<p>Issue of immigration was for a long time controversial concern throughout the Europe. Because of its demand for labor, Europe needs certain level of qualified immigration. However, in late decades a big amount of refugee immigration flow created serious challenges as well. Perceived ‘threat’ of immigration resulted in restrictive policies at both national and EU level. EU level policies in this respect are very interesting to research on. Because of great sensitivity of immigration issues to state sovereignty, formulation of EU level policy also faces challenges in terms of balancing intergovernmentalist and supranationalist logic of integration. Therefore, we have studied those policy and decision-making processes in immigration policy focusing on two issues: first, the motives behind the cooperation at EU level and the role of supranational institutions in shaping these EU level policies, second, the scope and capabilities of those policies. </p><p>Immigrant integration policy have been chosen as a case to comprehend issue more closely and detailed. Immigrant integration policy is very important for the social cohesion of European societies and is inseparable part of immigration policies. Immigrant integration debate is very new in EU agenda; it is just getting its way to Brussels. Although EU has no competence on this issue, we found out that there are quite real opportunities for EU to have its own way of helping with member states’ policies. The paper identifies and discusses important aspects of immigration and immigrant integration policies at EU level, the reasons why EU level policies are not pro-active and not suprantionalised yet. It further explores the available EU level instruments and sources for constructing strategy of integrating immigrants. All these study is done in the light of theoretical framework which is the combination of several theories, due to the complexity of the immigration matters. Every theory explains either some stage in the development of EU level policies (liberal intergovernmentalism and new institutionalism) or the possible EU level policy-making framework (intensive transgovernmentalism and policy coordination/benchmarking) for the studied issues.</p>

Meaning, Jack. "Innovations in monetary policy." Thesis, University of Kent, 2016. https://kar.kent.ac.uk/54684/.

Full text
Abstract:
The turn of the century brought with it a period of stability, both for the global macroeconomy, but also for the consensus view of how monetary policy could and should operate within it. Policymakers and academics widely agreed that control of the short-term nominal interest rate was sufficient to achieve price stability and moderate the worst of the economic cycle. However, more recent history has shown this view of the world to be a best overly simplistic, and at worst, dangerously flawed. Short-term interest rates have become constrained by their lower bound and monetary policymakers have turned to a range of alternative, unconventional policy measures in pursuit of their objectives. This thesis looks to investigate some of the reasons why the previous paradigm failed and starts to assess the range of innovations that have come in to play as part of the fundamental reassessment of the policy framework. It does this from the point of view of theory, but also empirically, employing econometric techniques to quantify the impacts of recent large-scale asset purchase programmes by central banks. Finally, it looks to develop a detailed model which begins to address some of the limitations of the pre-crisis paradigm by including a role for money which can be created by either policymakers, or the financial sector.

Full text
Abstract:
Learning is frequently regarded as facilitating factor for policy outcomes across multiple levels of governance. Learning however competes with alternative explanations such as bargaining, actor’s interests and organisational objectives. This thesis examines from an institutional perspective the link between individual learning of policymakers and learning among governmental institutions and analyses to what extent learning matters for the policy outcome. It finds that policy entrepreneurs play a key role in transferring learning to the organisational level and in achieving policy outcomes. The empirical focus is on learning in climate policy integration, which carries increasing importance for effective environmental governance as it can help create synergies for economic development and climate mitigation. The European Union is a frontrunner in integrating climate objectives into energy, transport and agriculture policy via regulatory instruments setting overall targets and conditioning financial resources upon compliance. This thesis uses qualitative methods to examine learning in the policymaking aspects of climate policy integration at the examples of the Renewable Energy Directive, its controversial biofuels component and the greening measures in the Common Agricultural Policy. This research makes several original contributions to the agency aspects of environmental governance: the meta-theoretical framework on learning allows a more nuanced analysis of what learning aspects occur in governance such as knowledge- and experience-based learning versus changes in different types of underlying beliefs. It also allows determining the extent to which a policy outcome results from learning or alternative explanations. This contribution clarifies the under-researched link between the learning individual, changes in beliefs and the factors hindering learning from being transferred to the organisational level where policy decisions are made. Policy outcomes resulted predominantly from policy entrepreneurs using previously acquired knowledge and experience to achieve a policy outcome aligned with their pre-formed deeper beliefs and policy objectives. Overall, the thesis provides a fresh perspective on the relevance of learning in the policymaking process and of bureaucrats as policy entrepreneurs.

Radford, Benjamin. "Misinformation in eating disorder communications| Implications for science communication policy." Thesis, State University of New York at Buffalo, 2013. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1546959.

Full text
Abstract:
<p> Though eating disorders are a serious public health threat, misinformation about these potentially deadly diseases is widespread. This study examines eating disorder information from a wide variety of sources including medical journals, news reports, and popular social activist authors. Examples of misinformation were identified, and three aspects of eating disorders (prevalence, mortality, and etiology) were chosen as key indicators of scientific illiteracy about those illnesses. A case study approach was then adopted to trace examples of misinformation to their original sources whenever possible. A dozen examples include best-selling books, national eating disorder information clearinghouses; the news media; documentary feature films; and a PBS television Nova documentary program. The results provide an overview of the ways in which valid information becomes flawed, including poor journalism, lack of fact-checking, plagiarism, and typographical errors. Less obvious&mdash;and perhaps even more important&mdash;much of the misinformation results from scientific research being co-opted to promote specific sociopolitical agendas. These results highlight a significant gap in science communication between researchers, the medical community, and the public regarding these diseases, and recommendations to address the problem are offered.</p>

Full text
Abstract:
Despite national immunization programs existing in each country, the national immunization policy development processes are not well described. One approach used to facilitate the process is that of national immunization technical advisory groups (ITAGs) which make technical recommendations to the national government to guide immunization policies and programs. To better understand the current policy making processes of countries across the globe, a systematic review as well as a global level survey were conducted. This thesis summarizes the characteristics of national immunization policy development processes in all countries as well as the existence of national ITAGs and their characteristics and modes of operation. In conclusion, ITAGs are considered a useful tool by countries for immunization policy development but many countries lack this tool and many of the existing groups need strengthening. Additional evaluation of these groups and further research is needed.

Armstrong, John. "Food security policy in Lao PDR : an analysis of policy narratives in use." Thesis, City, University of London, 2018. http://openaccess.city.ac.uk/21471/.

Full text
Abstract:
Food security has long been a component of the global development project. Over time, extensive definitions and conceptual frameworks for food security have emerged. This thesis explores food security policy discourse in middle income, non-crisis contexts in the Global South. Taking as its research site the Southeast Asian state of the Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), the thesis explores how food security is defined as a policy problem, and what solutions are proposed. Using an interpretive analytical approach, the research analyzes authored policy documents and constructed policy texts drawn from interviews conducted between 2011-2013 with 25 international experts to identify narratives emerging from the praxis of formal policy documents, institutional mandates and policy-in practice. The role of international expertise in shaping the national level discourse is explored in detail. Four policy narratives are identified: food security as modernization/economic growth, the smallholder narrative, the nutrition narrative, and food security as development. Particular attention is paid to the totemic status of rice in the discourse. For each narrative, a matrix of problem statements, proposed solutions, key indicators, and supporting institutions is presented. A metanarrative analysis of how these narratives intersect suggests that one of the characteristics of food security conceptually is its inclusiveness, giving it a remit across a range of sectors. This research presents food security as a valence issue, which, by virtue of its expansiveness, provides a platform on which multiple, divergent policy agenda coexist. Despite recognition among experts of serious shortcomings in both the conceptual framework and applied use in policy, this fluidity ensures that food security remains in consistent use, as both a component of national policy and as an artefact of global development discourse at the national level. Because of its continued focus on undernutrition in rural areas, the omission of issues such as overnutrition, urban food systems, and environmental degradation from the discourse, narratives in food security policy are presented as hewing to pre-existing problem statements and solutions. This renders food security an incomplete fit within the policy context of rapidly developing nations in 21st Century Southeast Asia.

Persson, Åsa Maria. "Choosing environmental policy instruments : case studies of municipal waste policy in Sweden and England." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 2007. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/909/.

Full text
Abstract:
European governments have during the last couple of decades shown an interest in new types of environmental policy instruments (EPIs) such as environmental taxes, tradable permit schemes and voluntary approaches, as opposed to relying on traditional forms of regulation. The interest in so-called ‘new’ EPIs (NEPIs) has led many governments to commit both to a more diverse EPI mix and to a policy process characterised by procedural rationality, in terms of considering a wide range of alternative instruments and assessing them in a systematic and transparent way. The first aim of this thesis is to examine the success of the quest for NEPIs at the national level in the field of municipal waste policy in two countries; the UK (England) and Sweden. In addition to mapping out EPI diversity, two contrasting theories on the pattern of adoption of instruments over time are evaluated, specifically focusing on the degree of coercion associated with EPIs. It is found that the waste policy mix in England has become more diverse, while the Swedish mix is characterised by a higher degree of coercion. The second aim is to analyse whether the instrument choice process has become more procedurally rational, and, if so, conducive to the adoption of NEPIs. A range of instrument choice theories at the macro-, meso- and micro-levels drawn from the public policy and political science literature are used to explain whether the ideal of procedural rationality is achievable or not. A case study methodology is used, in which the processes leading to the landfill allowance trading scheme (LATS) in England and and the waste incineration tax in Sweden are studied. It is found that the procedural rationality was higher in the England case, but that it is not a necessary nor sufficient cause for adoption of a NEPI.

Abstract:
The 2023 National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Forensic Science Research and Development (R&amp;D) Symposium is intended to promote collaboration and enhance knowledge transfer of NIJ-funded research. The NIJ Forensic Science R&amp;D Program funds both basic or applied R&amp;D projects that will (1) increase the body of knowledge to guide and inform forensic science policy and practice or (2) result in the production of useful materials, devices, systems, or methods that have the potential for forensic application. The intent of this program is to direct the findings of basic scientific research; research and development in broader scientific fields applicable to forensic science; and ongoing forensic science research toward the development of highly discriminating, accurate, reliable, cost-effective, and rapid methods for the identification, analysis, and interpretation of physical evidence for criminal justice purposes.

Hooke, William. Three Policies Shape Enterprise Value: Minor Adjustments Could Enhance the Societal Benefit. American Meteorological Society, January 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.1175/three-policies-shape-enterprise-value-2022.

Full text
Abstract:
This AMS Policy Study examines explicitly the role that public policy plays in determining the sum societal value of Earth Observations, Science, and Services (OSS) as well as the allocation of that value and the costs of OSS production across society. It examines three policy frameworks of quite different origin, purview, and standing. The first is the 2003 Fair Weather Report developed by the National Academy of Sciences. That policy focuses on collaboration. The second is the 2017 Weather Research and Forecasting Innovation Act enacted by the U.S. Congress. It focuses on innovation. The third is the current World Meteorological Organization development of Resolution 42, which seeks to make international contributions to and access to data and information more equitable, and at the same time expand the domain of data and information sharing from weather per se to Earth observations, science, and services more broadly. The study takes as its point of departure views of individual stakeholders in the so-called Weather, Water and Climate Enterprise (loosely speaking, the community of U.S. providers of weather, water, and climate information and services) with respect to these policies. Their perspectives were captured through informally solicited public and private comments from senior members of the Enterprise. Individually and in aggregate the comments hint at or suggest opportunities for extending and improving Enterprise value by broadening collaboration, fostering innovation, and making the Enterprise more equitable.
