AI agent for medicine reminders discussed on r/MachineLearning

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A user on Reddit's r/MachineLearning subreddit is seeking advice on how to model an AI agent designed for a medicine-reminder system. The agent needs to decide whether to remind a patient, wait, or notify a caregiver, operating under conditions of incomplete information about the patient's status. The user is exploring formalizations like Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) and belief-state reinforcement learning, but is open to simpler alternatives and practical implementation advice, including common pitfalls and evaluation metrics.
