What role do Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) play in conceptualizing models for reinforcement learning, and how do they facilitate the understanding of state transitions and rewards?

Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) serve as foundational frameworks in the conceptualization of models for reinforcement learning (RL). They provide a structured mathematical approach to modeling decision-making problems where outcomes are partly random and partly under the control of a decision-maker. The formalization of MDPs encapsulates the dynamics of an environment in which an agent interacts,

How does the concept of the Markov property simplify the modeling of state transitions in MDPs, and why is it significant for reinforcement learning algorithms?

The Markov property is a fundamental concept in the study of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) and plays a crucial role in simplifying the modeling of state transitions. This property asserts that the future state of a process depends only on the present state and action, not on the sequence of events that preceded it. Mathematically,
