Researchers have developed a new deep reinforcement learning (DRL) controller for networked artificial pancreas systems. This approach addresses the challenge of reducing communication frequency for energy efficiency in such systems. By introducing a rule-based criterion tied to blood glucose changes, the controller makes decisions at irregular intervals, formulated as a semi-Markov decision process. Experiments show this method enhances communication efficiency without compromising control performance. AI
