Automatic semantic segmentation for prediction of tuberculosis using lens-free microscopy images [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Tuberculosis (TB), caused by a germ called Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is one of the most serious public health problems in Peru and the world. The development of this project seeks to facilitate and automate the diagnosis of tuberculosis by the MODS method and using lens-free microscopy, due they are easier to calibrate and easier to use (by untrained

Optimal control strategies for tuberculosis treatment: a case study in Angola [PDF]
Numer. Algebra Control Optim. 2 (2012), no. 3, 601--617, 2012 We apply optimal control theory to a tuberculosis model given by a system of ordinary differential equations. Optimal control strategies are proposed to minimize the cost of interventions. Numerical simulations are given using data from Angola.
