Stochastic Optimal Control Model of Malaria Disease

Optimal Control of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease Model using Variational Iteration Method

In this paper, the optimal control of transmission dynamics of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD), formulated by a compartmental deterministic SEIPR (Susceptible-Incubation (Exposed)- Infected - Post infection virus shedding - Recovered) model with vaccination and treatment as control parameters is considered. The objective function is based on the combination of minimizing the number of infec...

Optimal control of malaria chemotherapy

Abstract. We present an intra-host mathematical model of malaria that describes the interaction of the immune system with the blood stage malaria merozoites. The model is modified by incorporating the effects of malaria drugs that target blood stage parasites. The optimal control represents a percentage effect of the chemotherapy of chloroquine in combination with chlorpheniramine on the reprod...

Stochastic optimal control theory

Control theory is a mathematical description of how to act optimally to gain future rewards. In this paper I give an introduction to deterministic and stochastic control theory; partial observability, learning and the combined problem of inference and control. Subsequently, I discuss a class of non-linear stochastic control problems that can be efficiently solved using a path integral. In this ...

Pathwise Stochastic Optimal Control

This paper approaches optimal control problems for discrete-time controlled Markov processes by representing the value of the problem in a dual Lagrangian form; the value is expressed as an infimum over a family of Lagrangian martingales of an expectation of a pathwise supremum of the objective adjusted by the Lagrangian martingale term. This representation opens up the possibility of numerical...
