## Overview

We propose an AI-assisted drug dosage prediction system for Graves' Disease. GDCurer is capable of predicting the optimal dosage of idonine-131 (I-131) by leveraging the patient's thyroid scintigraph (TS), iodine uptake (IU) information, and the half-life of I-131 (HL). To address the issue of lacking accurate drug dosages in the training data due to the bias introduced by clinicans, a novel machine learning method is developed to exploit the treatment information to correct the bias. Furthermore, GDCurer is designed as a lifelong learner which can continously learn from new clinical data by incorporating the techniques of experience replay (ER) and feature distillation (FD).

## Requirements

First, install PyTorch by following the instructions from [the official website](https://pytorch.org). To faithfully reproduce our results, please use the correct `1.8` version corresponding to your platforms/CUDA versions. PyTorch version higher than `1.8` should also work. For example, if you use Linux and **CUDA11.1** ([how to check CUDA version](https://varhowto.com/check-cuda-version/)), install PyTorch by the following command,

```bash
conda install pytorch==1.8.0 torchvision==0.9.0 cudatoolkit=11.1 -c pytorch -c conda-forge
```

Then run the following script to install the remaining dependencies,

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

## GDCurer Training

In the following section, we describe how to train GDCurer model by using our code.

### Data

Before training and evaluation, please download the dataset from this [Google Drive link](#) and save them in the `./data` directory.

### Standard Training Experiments

**Training scripts**

We provide an example training script to run standard training of GDCurer. Symply run

```bash
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=${your_cuda_device_id} bash scripts/standard.sh
```

For the results in the paper, we use Nvidia Tesla A100 GPUs with CUDA 11. Using different types of devices or different versions of CUDA/other software may lead to slightly different performance.

### Lifelong Training Experiments

To run lifelong learning experiments with 4 training phases, simply run

```bash
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=${your_cuda_device_id} bash scripts/lifelong.sh
```

## GDCurer Web App
We've built a web app on GDCurer using [Django](https://github.com/django/django) and [MySQL](https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/). You can build it through the [webUI](./webUI/).

## Bugs or questions?

If you have any questions related to the code or the paper, feel free to email [Haowei](`[email protected]`). If you encounter any problems when using the code, or want to report a bug, you can open an issue. Please try to specify the problem with details so we can help you better and quicker!
