Abstract

Asthma, a chronic respiratory ailment affecting millions worldwide, presents significant challenges due to the unpredictable nature of exacerbation episodes. Existing methodologies struggle to accurately predict exacerbations individually, particularly across diverse patient demographics. This paper introduces an innovative conceptual framework for the early prediction of asthma exacerbations, leveraging advanced reinforcement learning (RL) techniques, specifically proximal policy optimization, along with patient-specific data and environmental factors. The primary goal is to revolutionize asthma management by providing customized predictions and tailored reward mechanisms that enable proactive interventions and optimize resource allocation. The framework comprises critical components such as patient profiling through a mobile application, trigger identification, a RL-based predictive model, an early warning mechanism, and a personalized reward scheme. Data for patient profiling is gathered through a mobile application, which includes medical history, demographics, symptoms, and triggers. Profiling forms the foundation for the prediction model, enabling it to identify subtle patterns and anticipate exacerbation events more accurately and efficiently. The significant contributions of this research include offering a novel approach by incorporating custom reward functions to enhance learning across heterogeneous patient populations, tailoring interventions to unique triggers and symptom presentations, and addressing challenges associated with patient diversity. By addressing the limitations of existing methodologies and offering a comprehensive solution, this research promises significant improvements in asthma care and healthcare delivery, paving the way for future advancements in personalized medicine and predictive healthcare systems.
