A novel cascaded fractional fuzzy approach for control of fermentation process.

In this work, a cascaded control strategy based on fractional-order fuzzy PD/PI (FOFPD/PI) is proposed for temperature control of the bioreactor. The FOFPI is used to control the ethanol concentration in the inner loop, while the FOFPD is used for temperature control of the bioreactor in the outer loop. The integer order fuzzy PD/PI (IOFPD/PI), 2DOF FOPID, 2DOF PID, and PID are also designed for comparison purposes.

Modified fractional order IMC design based drug scheduling for cancer treatment.

This paper aims to improve chemotherapy drug(s) scheduling of the drug dose injected into a patient. The existing practice has been established on experiments performed during the drug development process. In general, chemotherapeutic drugs are highly toxic in nature and directly affect the probability of a patient's survival.

Two degree of freedom PID based inferential control of continuous bioreactor for ethanol production.

This article presents the development of inferential control scheme based on Adaptive linear neural network (ADALINE) soft sensor for the control of fermentation process. The ethanol concentration of bioreactor is estimated from temperature profile of the process using soft sensor. The prediction accuracy of ADALINE is enhanced by retraining it with immediate past measurements.
