lüll Towards model-based control of Parkinson s disease Schiff SJPhilos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci 2010[May]; 368 (1918): 2269-308Modern model-based control theory has led to transformative improvements in our ability to track the nonlinear dynamics of systems that we observe, and to engineer control systems of unprecedented efficacy. In parallel with these developments, our ability to build computational models to embody our expanding knowledge of the biophysics of neurons and their networks is maturing at a rapid rate. In the treatment of human dynamical disease, our employment of deep brain stimulators for the treatment of Parkinson's disease is gaining increasing acceptance. Thus, the confluence of these three developments--control theory, computational neuroscience and deep brain stimulation--offers a unique opportunity to create novel approaches to the treatment of this disease. This paper explores the relevant state of the art of science, medicine and engineering, and proposes a strategy for model-based control of Parkinson's disease. We present a set of preliminary calculations employing basal ganglia computational models, structured within an unscented Kalman filter for tracking observations and prescribing control. Based upon these findings, we will offer suggestions for future research and development.|*Models, Biological[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Computer Simulation[MESH]|Globus Pallidus/pathology/physiopathology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Nerve Net/pathology/physiopathology[MESH]|Neurosciences[MESH]|Parkinson Disease/etiology/pathology/*physiopathology/*therapy[MESH]|Thalamus/pathology/physiopathology[MESH] |
