Both methods need the value of the state variables; therefore Kalman-filter extended for nonlinear systems is applied. Finally, linear optimal LQ method is applied on the ICU model handled with differential geometric approach.

Beside classical therapies, a new approach is represented by model-based therapies, where human body works as a complex system. These therapies are called targeted molecular therapies (TMTs). TMTs are fighting specifically against different cancer mechanisms and usually don’t eliminate the whole tumor, but control the tumor into a given state and keep it there. The aim of antiangiogenic cancer therapy is to prevent tumors from forming new blood vessels, because without angiogenesis tumor growth is inhibited. In this paper we analyze a nonlinear tumor growth model and design linear controllers based on a linear model acquired from working point linearization. Realized controllers are state feedback with pole placement, LQ control method and both controllers with state observer. Simulations are carried out and the controllers are analyzed in many aspects, including the working points used at linearization.}, year = {2012}, pages = {143-148}, orcid-numbers = {Kovács, Levente/0000-0002-3188-0800} } @article{MTMT:2150940, title = {Model-based analysis and synthesis of tumor growth under angiogenic inhibition: a case study}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2150940}, author = {Drexler, Dániel András and Kovács, Levente and Sápi, Johanna and Harmati, István and Benyó, Zoltán}, doi = {10.3182/20110828-6-IT-1002.02107}, journal-iso = {IFAC PROCEEDINGS VOLUMES}, journal = {IFAC PROCEEDINGS VOLUMES}, volume = {44}, unique-id = {2150940}, issn = {1474-6670}, abstract = {Anti-angiogenic theraphy is a promising method to fight cancer, however the special therapeutic drugs applied are quite expernsive.

Keeping the blood glucose level between certain thresholds is essential for the proper energy transport. Insulin plays a key role in maintaining the glucose homeostasis. Because of its great importance, many models were published on either to describe the glucose-insulin interaction in case of patients under Intensive Care Unit (ICU), or to model Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM). Currently for most of the models linear control concepts are used in order to design an appropriate controller. The aim of the current paper is to investigate applicability of nonlinear control theory providing exact mathematical background in the control problem of glucose-insulin interaction. Both ICU and T1DM cases are analyzed on well-known models with different complexity. Our aim is to hide the nonlinearity of the models by transforming the input signal so that the response of the model would mimic the behavior of a linear system; hence extending the validity of linear controllers. The asymptotic tracking problem needs the value of the state variables; therefore extended Kalman-filter is applied.

To design the optimal controller, the disturbance rejection LQ method based on the minimax differential game is applied. The critical, minimax value of the scaling parameter gamma_crit is determined by using the Modified Riccati Control Algebraic (MCARE) equation employing reduced Groebner basis solution on rational field. The numerical results are in good agreement with those of the Control Toolbox of MATLAB. It turned out, that in order to get positive definite solution stabilizing the closed loop, should be greater than gamma_crit. The obtained results are compared with the classical LQ technique on the original non-linear system, using a standard meal disturbance situation. It is also demonstrated that for gamma >> gamma_crit, the gain matrix approaches the traditional LQ optimal control design solution.
