RESUMEN
New SARS-CoV-2 variants escaping the effect of vaccines are an eminent threat. The use of antivirals to inhibit the viral replication cycle or immunomodulators to regulate host immune responses can help to tackle the viral infection at the host level. To evaluate the potential use of these therapies, we propose the application of an inverse optimal neural controller to a mathematical model that represents SARS-CoV-2 dynamics in the host. Antiviral effects and immune responses are considered as the control actions. The variability between infected hosts can be large, thus, the host infection dynamics are identified based on a Recurrent High-Order Neural Network (RHONN) trained with the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). The performance of the control strategies is tested by employing a Monte Carlo analysis. Simulation results present different scenarios where potential antivirals and immunomodulators could reduce the viral load.
RESUMEN
Diabetes Mellitus is a serious metabolic condition for global health associations. Recently, the number of adults, adolescents and children who have developed Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) has increased as well as the mortality statistics related to this disease. For this reason, the scientific community has directed research in developing technologies to reduce T1DM complications. This contribution is related to a feedback control strategy for blood glucose management in population samples of ten virtual adult subjects, adolescents and children. This scheme focuses on the development of an inverse optimal control (IOC) proposal which is integrated by neural identification, a multi-step prediction (MSP) strategy, and Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy inference to shape the convenient insulin infusion in the treatment of T1DM patients. The MSP makes it possible to estimate the glucose dynamics 15 min in advance; therefore, this estimation allows the Neuro-Fuzzy-IOC (NF-IOC) controller to react in advance to prevent hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic events. The T-S fuzzy membership functions are defined in such a way that the respective inferences change basal infusion rates for each patient's condition. The results achieved for scenarios simulated in Uva/Padova virtual software illustrate that this proposal is suitable to maintain blood glucose levels within normoglycemic values (70-115 mg/dL); furthermore, this level remains less than 250 mg/dL during the postprandial event. A comparison between a simple neural IOC (NIOC) and the proposed NF-IOC is carried out using the analysis for control variability named CVGA chart included in the Uva/Padova software. This analysis highlights the improvement of the NF-IOC treatment, proposed in this article, on the NIOC approach because each subject is located inside safe zones for the entire duration of the simulation.

The Low-Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) capacity of the Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is one of the important requirements to ensure power systems stability, incorporating wind energy. While traditional control schemes present inappropriate performances under disturbances, this paper introduces a novel Neural Inverse Optimal Control (N-IOC) scheme for LVRT capacity enhancing. The developed controller is synthesized using recurrent high order neural network, which is utilized to build-up the DFIG and the DC-link dynamics. Based on such identifier, the proposed N-IOC is synthesized. This controller is experimentally validated on 1∕4 HP DFIG prototype considering various grid disturbances. Results illustrate the proposed controller effectiveness for LVRT enhancement without required decomposition process and/or any additional device.
RESUMEN
p53 regulates the cellular response to genotoxic damage and prevents carcinogenic events. Theoretical and experimental studies state that the p53-Mdm2 network constitutes the core module of regulatory interactions activated by cellular stress induced by a variety of signaling pathways. In this paper, a strategy to control the p53-Mdm2 network regulated by p14ARF is developed, based on the pinning control technique, which consists into applying local feedback controllers to a small number of nodes (pinned ones) in the network. Pinned nodes are selected on the basis of their importance level in a topological hierarchy, their degree of connectivity within the network, and the biological role they perform. In this paper, two cases are considered. For the first case, the oscillatory pattern under gamma-radiation is recovered; afterward, as the second case, increased expression of p53 level is taken into account. For both cases, the control law is applied to p14ARF (pinned node based on a virtual leader methodology), and overexpressed Mdm2-mediated p53 degradation condition is considered as carcinogenic initial behavior. The approach in this paper uses a computational algorithm, which opens an alternative path to understand the cellular responses to stress, doing it possible to model and control the gene regulatory network dynamics in two different biological contexts. As the main result of the proposed control technique, the two mentioned desired behaviors are obtained.
RESUMEN
A new approach for trajectory tracking on uncertain complex networks is proposed. To achieve this goal, a neural controller is applied to a small fraction of nodes (pinned ones). Such controller is composed of an on-line identifier based on a recurrent high-order neural network, and an inverse optimal controller to track the desired trajectory; a complete stability analysis is also included. In order to verify the applicability and good performance of the proposed control scheme, a representative example is simulated, which consists of a complex network with each node described by a chaotic Lorenz oscillator.
RESUMEN
In this paper, the authors propose a particle swarm optimization (PSO) for a discrete-time inverse optimal control scheme of a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). For the inverse optimal scheme, a control Lyapunov function (CLF) is proposed to obtain an inverse optimal control law in order to achieve trajectory tracking. A posteriori, it is established that this control law minimizes a meaningful cost function. The CLFs depend on matrix selection in order to achieve the control objectives; this matrix is determined by two mechanisms: initially, fixed parameters are proposed for this matrix by a trial-and-error method and then by using the PSO algorithm. The inverse optimal control scheme is illustrated via simulations for the DFIG, including the comparison between both mechanisms.
RESUMEN
This paper presents the automation of a real activated sludge wastewater treatment plant, which is located at San Antonio Ajijic in Jalisco, Mexico. The main objective is to create an on-line automatic supervision system, and to regulate the dissolved oxygen concentration in order to improve the performances of the process treating municipal wastewater. An approximate mathematical model is determined in order to evaluate via simulations different control strategies: proportional integral (PI), fuzzy PI and PI Logarithm/Antilogarithm (PI L/A). The controlled variable is dissolved oxygen and the control input is the injected oxygen. Based on this evaluation, the PI L/A controller is selected to be implemented in the real process. After that, the implementation, testing and fully operation of the plant automation are described. With this system, the considered wastewater treatment plant save energy and improves the effluent quality; also, the process monitoring is done online and it is easily operated by the plant users.

This paper presents a discrete-time inverse optimal neural controller, which is constituted by combination of two techniques: 1) inverse optimal control to avoid solving the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation associated with nonlinear system optimal control and 2) on-line neural identification, using a recurrent neural network trained with an extended Kalman filter, in order to build a model of the assumed unknown nonlinear system. The inverse optimal controller is based on passivity theory. The applicability of the proposed approach is illustrated via simulations for an unstable nonlinear system and a planar robot.

This paper deals with the adaptive tracking problem of non-linear systems in presence of unknown parameters, unmodelled dynamics and input saturation. A high order recurrent neural network is used in order to identify the unknown system and a learning law is obtained using the Lyapunov methodology. Then a stabilizing control law for the reference tracking error dynamics is developed using the Lyapunov methodology and the Sontag control law. Tracking error boundedness is established as a function of a design parameter. The new approach is illustrated by examples of complex dynamical systems: chaos control and synchronization.

For neural networks with constant or time-varying delays, the problems of determining the exponential stability and estimating the exponential convergence rate are studied in this paper. An approach combining the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals with the linear matrix inequality is taken to investigate the problems, which provide bounds on the interconnection matrix and the activation functions, so as to guarantee the systems' exponential stability. Some criteria for the exponentially stability, which give information on the delay-dependence property, are derived. The results obtained in this paper provide one more set of easily verified guidelines for determining the exponentially stability of delayed neural networks, which are less conservative and less restrictive than the ones reported so far in the literature.
