Automating the drug scheduling with different toxicity clearance in cancer chemotherapy via evolutionary computation
The toxicity of an anticancer drug is cleared from the body by different processes, including saturable metabolic and nonsaturable renal-excretion pathways. According to the princ...

Evolutionary Drug Scheduling Model for Cancer Chemotherapy
This paper presents a modified optimal control model of drug scheduling in cancer chemotherapy and a new adaptive elitist-population based genetic algorithm (AEGA) to solve it. Wo...

An evolutionary approach to cancer chemotherapy scheduling
In this paper, we investigate the employment of evolutionary algorithms as a search mechanism in a decision support system for designing chemotherapy schedules. Chemotherapy invol...

Accelerated optimisation of chemotherapy dose schedules using fitness inheritance
Abstract-- Cancer treatment by chemotherapy involves multiple applications of toxic drugs over a period of time. Optimising the schedule of these treatments can improve the outcome...

Optimal delivery of chemotherapeutic agents in cancer
In this paper, derivation of the optimal chemotherapy schedule is formulated and solved as a dynamic optimization problem. For this purpose two models representing the tumour grow...
