The reward function for a Markov Decision Process is defined as R(s,a,s') = reward for when action a in state s leads to state s'
If the state space consists of 3 states and the action space has 4 actions, how many possible inputs are there to the reward function?

How can you best describe the Bellman Equations for a Markov Reward Process (MRP)? A) The value of a state is the reward from that state plus the sum over the product of transition probabilities for the next n states. B) The value of a state is the sum over all actions, a, given the state, s of the policy, times the sum over the product of transition probabilities from the state to the next state, s’ and the reward...
Consider a Markov chain with state space S = {1, 2, 3, 4} and transition matrix P= where (a) Draw a directed graph that represents the transition matrix for this Markov chain. (b) Compute the following probabilities: P(starting from state 1, the process reaches state 3 in exactly three time steps); P(starting from state 1, the process reaches state 3 in exactly four time steps); P(starting from state 1, the process reaches states higher than state 1 in exactly two...

Problem 5.2 (10 points) A three-state Markov chain with state space S = {1,2,3} has distinct holding time parameters 91 = 1, 92 = 2, and q3 = 3. From each state, the process is equally likely to transition to the other two states. Exhibit the generator matrix and find the stationary distribution.

Question 4t Write the correct values in the boxes. For this question, working is not required and will not be mar For parts (a) - (e), consider the Markov process with transition diagram at right and steady state vector SA (a) When p 0.2 and-0.3 the value of sA is b) When p 0.6 and SA 0.6 the value of g is Hint: In a steady state, the probability that a step is a switch from state B to state.A...
Consider a disease, which has three states: "0 (healthy)."1" (impaired), "Z (disease) In state "Z when certain treatments are adopted, the state can be restored to be healthy C'O).When a subject is either at state "O" or 1", she/he can decide whether some preventive actions should be taken so that she/he will be in a new state "3. The state transition probabilities are as follows (5) Assume that the disease process is a first-order time homogenous Markov chain and it...
