Real-time Projected Gradient-based Nonlinear Model Predictive Control with an Application to Anesthesia Control [PDF]

, 2022
Medical drug infusion problems pose a combination of challenges such as nonlinearities from physiological models, model uncertainty due to inter- and intra-patient variability, as well as strict safety specifications. With these challenges in mind, we propose a novel real-time Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) scheme based on projected gradient
