RL-Medical

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) agents applied to medical images

Examples

• Landmark detection using different DQN variants for a single agent implemented using Tensorpack
• Landmark detection for multiple agents using different communication variants implemented in PyTorch
• Automatic view planning using different DQN variants
