This research investigates how the choice of time interval affects reinforcement learning models for sepsis treatment in intensive care. By comparing one-, two-, four-, and eight-hour patient timelines, it demonstrates that shorter intervals better capture patient dynamics, improve estimated survival outcomes, and may enable more effective AI-assisted clinical decision-making.

This research uses artificial intelligence to support treatment decisions for rare diseases. By organizing verified medical knowledge into an AI assistant, it helps clinicians and families access reliable guidance, reducing the treatment odyssey and transforming rare-disease diagnoses into clearer, more hopeful care pathways.
