马尔可夫决策过程 (Markov Decision Process) 是一种数学模型,用于表示一个决策者在面对不确定环境时所面临的问题。它通过对环境状态、决策、奖励和转移概率等因素的建模,来描述决策者如何根据当前环境状态,选择最优决策,以达到其目标。

Markov Decision Process
A Markov Decision Process (MDP) is a mathematical framework used to model decision-making problems in a stochastic environment. It consists of a set of states, a set of actions, a transition function, reward function, and a discount factor.
The states represent the possible situations or conditions of the system, while actions represent the available choices that can be made at each state. The transition function specifies the probability of moving from one state to another after taking a particular action. The reward function determines the immediate reward received for each transition, while the discount factor is used to give preference to immediate rewards over future rewards.
The objective of an MDP is to find a policy that maximizes the expected cumulative reward over time. A policy is a rule that specifies the action to take at each state. The optimal policy is the one that leads to the highest expected cumulative reward.
The MDP framework is widely used in various fields, including robotics, finance, healthcare, and transportation, to name a few. It is a powerful tool for modeling decision-making problems in uncertain environments and has led to significant advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning.
马尔可夫决策过程(Markov Decision Process,MDP)
马尔可夫决策过程(Markov Decision Process,MDP)是一种数学框架,用于建模决策者(或称为“代理”)在一个随机环境中做出序列决策的过程。它是马尔可夫链的扩展,加入了决策制定过程。MDP特别适用于那些决策结果依赖于当前状态和所采取行动的场合。
MDP通常由以下几个部分组成:
1. **状态集合(S)**:表示环境可能存在的所有状态。
2. **行动集合(A)**:对于每个状态,可能存在一系列的行动可供选择。
3. **转移概率(P)**:描述当代理在某个状态下采取特定行动时,转移到下一个状态的概率。它是依赖于当前状态和采取行动的。
4. **奖励函数(R)**:为每个状态和行动对指定一个即时奖励值,表示采取这个行动后立即获得的“收益”。
5. **折扣因子(γ)**:一个介于0和1之间的值,用来衡量未来奖励的当前价值。
在MDP中,代理的目标是通过学习一个策略(policy),即一个状态到行动的映射,来最大化长期累积奖励。策略可以是确定性的,也可以是随机性的。确定性策略为每个状态指定一个行动,而随机性策略为每个状态指定一个行动的概率分布。
MDP的求解通常涉及到以下两个主要的计算问题:
1. **策略评估(Policy Evaluation)**:评估给定策略的期望回报。
2. **策略优化(Policy Improvement)**:基于当前策略评估的结果,生成一个更好的策略。
通过不断迭代这两个步骤,可以找到最优策略,即长期期望回报最大化的策略。在实际应用中,MDP是强化学习的基础,用于解决各种控制问题。
