Abstract

In this paper, problems of sequential decision theory are taken into consideration by extending the definition of the BAYES rule and treating BAYES rules. This generalisation is quite useful for practice. In many cases only BAYES rules can be calculated. The conditions under which such sequential decision procedures exist are demonstrated, as well as how to construct them on a scheme of backward induction resulting in the conclusion that the existence of BAYES rules needs essentially weaker assumptions than the existence of BAYES rules.Futhermore, methods are searched to simplify the construction of optimal stopping rules. Some illustrative examples are given.
