A robust optimal control of discrete time Markov chains with finite terminal and bounded costs or wealth using probability distortion is studied. The time inconsistency of these distortion operators and hence its lack of dynamic programming are discussed. Due to that, dynamic versions of these operators are introduced, and its availability for dynamic programming is demonstrated.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate IAND with subjective tests postoperatively and assess the relationship between three-dimensional measurements of the mandibular canal (MC) and IAND.
Methods: Eighteen patients (Mean age: 24.
Objective: Aim of the study was to examine the effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on respiratory function, respiratory muscle strength, trunk control, balance, and functional capacity in stroke patients.
Methods: 21 stroke individuals were randomly divided into two groups as control group and treatment group. Respiratory function test, Maximal Inspiratory Pressure (MIP) and Maximal Expiratory Pressure (MEP) were evaluated.
Objectives: The 3-m backward walk test (3MBWT) is used to evaluate neuromuscular control, proprioception, protective reflexes, fall risk and balance. The aim of our study was to reveal the test-retest reliability and validity of the 3MBWT in stroke patients.
Materials And Methods: This study included a total of 41 stroke patients [age 59 (35-78) years].
Background: The Brief-BESTest is the short version of the BESTest used to evaluate balance and fall risk in a multiple disease populations. The clinicians need practical, short application scales to evaluate the risk of falling, balance and rehabilitation results.
Objective: This study aims to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Brief-BESTest (Brief-BESTest-T) in stroke patients.
