Recursive Utility for Stochastic Trees

Stochastic trees are semi-Markov processes represented using tree diagrams. Such trees have been found useful for prescriptive modeling of temporal medical treatment choice. We consider utility functions over stochastic trees which permit recursive evaluation in a graphically intuitive manner analog...
