Abstract
Glaucoma is an eye disease that requires early detection and proper diagnosis for timely intervention and treatment which can help slow down further progression and to manage intraocular pressure. This paper aims to address the problem by proposing a novel approach that combines a model-based Reinforcement Learning (RL) approach, called DynaGlaucoDetect, with ocular gaze data. By leveraging the RL algorithms to simulate and predict the dynamics of glaucoma, a model-based approach can improve the accuracy and efficiency of glaucoma detection by enabling better preservation of visual health. The RL agent is trained using real experiences and synthetic experiences which are generated using the model-based algorithm Dyna-Q. Two different Q-table generation methods have been discussed: the Direct Synthesis Method (DSM) and the Indirect Synthesis Method (IdSM). The presence of glaucoma has been detected by comparing the reward score a patient obtains with the threshold values obtained through the performed experimentation. The scores obtained using DSM and IdSM have been compared to understand the learning of the agent in both cases. Finally, hyperparameter tuning has been performed to identify the best set of hyperparameters.
