Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) are mathematical frameworks used to model decision-making in situations where outcomes are partly random and partly under the control of a decision maker. They consist of states, actions, rewards, and transition probabilities, allowing for the optimization of decisions over time. MDPs are particularly useful in machine learning applications, providing a structured approach to solve problems involving sequential decision-making and learning optimal policies.
congrats on reading the definition of Markov Decision Processes. now let's actually learn it.
