General anesthesia reduces complexity and temporal asymmetry of the informational structures derived from neural recordings in Drosophila [PDF]
We apply techniques from the field of computational mechanics to evaluate the statistical complexity of neural recording data from fruit flies. First, we connect statistical complexity to the flies' level of conscious arousal, which is manipulated by general anesthesia (isoflurane).

Towards Real-World Applications of Personalized Anesthesia Using Policy Constraint Q Learning for Propofol Infusion Control [PDF]
Automated anesthesia promises to enable more precise and personalized anesthetic administration and free anesthesiologists from repetitive tasks, allowing them to focus on the most critical aspects of a patient's surgical care. Current research has typically focused on creating simulated environments from which agents can learn.

A Model-Based Architecture for Automatic Anesthesia Infusion [PDF]
This paper presents a model-based control architecture. Based on the Medical Cyber-physical Systems (MCPS) concept, we construct a safe and reliable automatic anesthesia control closed-loop system. The control architecture uses the patient's propofol pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model, using the calculated results as a feedback signal to correct the
