Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: In many applications, it may be better to compute a good interpretable policy instead of a complex optimal one. For example, a recommendation engine might perform better when accounting for user profiles, but in the absence of such loyalty data, assumptions would have to be made that increase the complexity of the recommendation policy. A simple greedy recommendation could be implemented based on aggregated user data, but another simple policy can improve on this by accounting for the fact that users come from different segments of a population. ,  study the problem of computing an optimal policy that is interpretable. In particular,  consider a policy to be interpretable if the decisions (e.g., recommendations) depend only on a small number of simple state attributes (e.g., the currently vied product). This novel model is a general Markov decision problem with action constraints over states.  show that this problem is NP hard and develop a Mixed Integer Linear Programming formulation that gives an exact solution when policies are restricted to being deterministic.  demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach on a real-world business case for a European tour operator's recommendation engine.
