Abstract: A control method for a reinforcement learning system includes following operations. The reinforcement learning system obtains training data relating to an interaction system. The interaction system interacts with a reinforcement learning agent. A neural network model is utilized by the reinforcement learning agent for selecting sequential actions from a set of candidate actions. The neural network model is trained to maximize cumulative rewards collected by the reinforcement learning agent in response to the sequential actions. During training of the neural network model, auxiliary rewards of the cumulative rewards are provided to the reinforcement learning agent according to a comparison between symptom inquiry actions of the sequential actions and diagnosed symptoms in the training data.

Abstract: A computer aided medical method include following steps. An initial symptom is collected through an interaction interface. A representative prediction model is selected from plural candidate prediction models according to the initial symptom. The candidate prediction models are trained by a machine learning algorithm according to clinical data. A series of sequential actions is generated according to the representative prediction model and the initial symptom. The sequential actions are selected from plural candidate actions in the representative prediction model. The candidate actions include plural inquiry actions and plural disease prediction actions. Each of the sequential actions is one of the inquiry actions or the disease prediction actions. The series of sequential actions is displayed on the interaction interface.

Abstract: A computer aided medical method includes the following steps. An initial symptom of a patient and context information is collected through an interaction interface. Actions in a series are sequentially generated according to the candidate prediction models and the initial symptom. Each of the actions corresponds to one of the inquiry actions or one of the disease prediction actions. If the latest one of the sequential actions corresponds to one of the disease prediction actions, potential disease predictions are generated in a first ranking evaluated by the candidate prediction models. The first ranking is adjusted into a second ranking according to the context information. A result prediction corresponding to the potential disease predictions is generated in the second ranking.
