Query: How is the upper bound of the action space determined? #21

Closed sumanabasu closed 3 years ago

sumanabasu commented 3 years ago

The environment action space is bounded between (0, 30). While 0 makes sense as it can be interpreted as 'no insulin has been administered', I'm wondering how the upper limit 30 is determined? Also, what is the unit?

It is the upper limit of the insulin pump for basal. See here https://github.com/jxx123/simglucose/blob/master/simglucose/params/pump_params.csv, the gym environment uses Insulet pump by default.

The unit is U/min (1 U = 1/6000 pmol/L).
