I just need a way to input the graph and calculate the expected value at each end node. The whole thing could be done with a calculator and pencil, but it would be nice to have everything in R.
Hi.
Is the graph a tree or a general DAG?
If i understand correctly, there is a single input node, where the
process starts and in each non-end node, the process continues at a
randomly chosen out-going edge with the specified probabilities.
What is the output, if the process goes through a sequence of nodes,
which are assigned the values w_0, ..., w_n? Here, w_0 is the value
of the start node and w_n the value of an end-node.
