Optimal Control for Mathematical Models of Cancer Therapies An Application of Geometric Methods /
This book presents applications of geometric optimal control to real life biomedical problems with an emphasis on cancer treatments. A number of mathematical models for both classical and novel cancer treatments are presented as optimal control problems with the goal of constructing optimal protocol...
