A value-based deep reinforcement learning model with human expertise in optimal treatment of sepsis.

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has been increasingly attempted in assisting clinicians for real-time treatment of sepsis. While a value function quantifies the performance of policies in such decision-making processes, most value-based DRL algorithms cannot evaluate the target value function precisely and are not as safe as clinical experts. In this study, we propose a Weighted Dueling Double Deep Q-Network with embedded human Expertise (WD3QNE).
