Absolute identification task with known world state distribution: (a) utility function; (b) world states distribution (a mixture of two Gaussians); (c) expected utility as a function of information-processing resources for a bounded-optimal decision-maker with a uniform and with an optimal prior (the shaded region cannot be reached by any decision-making process); and (d) exemplary optimal priors $q^{\ast }\left(X\right)$ for different information-processing bounds.
