For example, a Gauss–Newton-based decomposition algorithm has been proposed to approximate solutions of challenging mixed-integer optimal control problems by decomposing the original task into a ...

A model of optimal diet selection on depletable resources is presented which considers the effects of exploitative competitors on the optimal behavior. In the absence of any competitors, one of three ...

Optimal control techniques are used to develop optimal strategies for chemotherapy. In particular, we investigate the qualitative differences between three different cell-kill models: log kill ...

Economists at Deutsche Bank ran the numbers and concluded that optimal control theory currently implies much tighter policy than what’s being forecasted by officials: ...
