In hybrid automatic insulin delivery (HAID) systems, meal disturbance is compensated by feedforward control, which requires the announcement of the meal by the patient with type 1 diabetes (DM1) to achieve the desired glycemic control performance. The calculation of insulin bolus in the HAID system is based on the amount of carbohydrates (CHO) in the meal and patient-specific parameters, i.e. carbohydrate-to-insulin ratio (CR) and insulin sensitivity-related correction factor (CF). The estimation of CHO in a meal is prone to errors and is burdensome for patients. This study proposes a fully automatic insulin delivery (FAID) system that eliminates patient intervention by compensating for unannounced meals. This study exploits the deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithm to calculate insulin bolus for unannounced meals without utilizing the information on CHO content. The DRL bolus calculator is integrated with a closed-loop controller and a meal detector (both previously developed by our group) to implement the FAID system. An adult cohort of 68 virtual patients based on the modified UVa/Padova simulator was used for in-silico trials.

The proposed algorithm can be exploited to realize FAID systems in the future.
