rcss: Subgradient and duality approach for dynamic programming

Abstract

This short paper gives an introduction to the rcss package. The R package rcss provides users with a tool to approximate the value functions in the Bellman recursion using convex piecewise linear functions formed using operations on tangents. A pathwise method is then used to gauge the quality of the numerical results.
