Design of a Model Using Machine Learning and Deep Dyna Q Learning Integration for Improved Disease Prediction in Remote Healthcare

Abstract

In the domain of proactive healthcare management, the imperative for remote health monitoring has escalated, the remote health care in this scenario specially means, the patient is seating at the remote location that is not in the hospital setting, and doctor or healthcare worker is monitoring the health parameters gathered using biomedical sensors and passed through the network. Conventional methodologies, while partially effective, encounter challenges in predictive precision, responsiveness to evolving health dynamics, and managing the vast array of patient data. These limitations underscore the demand for a sophisticated, holistic solution catering to diverse use cases. This work introduces a pioneering framework amalgamating traditional machine learning (ML) models with the advanced capabilities of Deep Dyna Q Learning process to overcome existing constraints. This framework strategically utilizes ensemble of traditional algorithms which amalgamates the strengths of these diverse models. Central to this model is the integration of Deep Dyna Q Learning, empowering the system with real-time adaptability and dynamic decision-making process through reinforcement learning principles, thereby deriving insights from historical and simulated datasets to foster more nuanced, patient-centric decisions. The impact of this comprehensive approach is profound, evidenced by preliminary results showcasing significant enhancements in the efficiency of remote health monitoring systems. Notably, the model achieves increase in precision, accuracy and recall for disease prediction. These improvements signify a paradigm shift towards proactive and efficient healthcare interventions, especially in remote settings. The fusion of traditional ML techniques with Deep Dyna Q Learning emerges as a potent solution, heralding a revolution in remote health monitoring and establishing a new benchmark for proactive healthcare delivery scenarios.
