tions, an identified linear model with constrained inputs is utilized that is well suited for control design, thus circumvent the onerous requirements of first-principles modeling. The general linear models employed for controller synthesis do, however, suffer from a drawback; they do not well describe the nonlinear transient dynamics that are inherent in biological systems. Instead of estimating the important parameters of physiological models on-line, system identification techniques facilitate the recursive updating of the model whenever new data becomes available. Adaptive models also allow for characterizing the time-varying and nonlinear transient behavior of biological systems. Among the computationally viable alternatives to nonlinear models is the subspace-based state-space system identification technique, where structured block Hankel matrices are constructed using measured input/output data and computationally efficient projection operations retrieve certain subspaces related to the system matrices. Recent developments in system identification include a recursive predictor-based subspace identification (PBSID) method that avoids the computationally burdensome procedure of computing or updating singular value decomposition (SVD) factorizations (Houtzager et al., 2012). The adaptive identification allows the realized models to be valid over a diverse range of conditions without requiring in-depth physiological knowledge on the biological systems (Hajizadeh et al., 2017b, 2018a). An example of MPC in biomedical applications is the artificial pancreas (AP) systems that automatically administer the required amount of insulin dose to patients living with the chronic disease of type 1 diabetes to regulate their glucose concentrations (Hovorka et al., 2004; Gondhalekar et al., 2016; Turksoy et al., 2017; Chakrabarty et al., 2018; Messori et al., 2018). As the core of the artificial pancreas is a control algorithm that computes the required dose throughout diverse daily life conditions and across various patients, the use of linear models is of interest to design computational efficient control algorithms. Nevertheless, as physiological characteristics among people differ substantially, and also vary significantly within individuals over time, a general linear model is not sufficient for effective control. To overcome this limitation, personalized and recursive identification techniques can employed to better characterize the time-varying nonlinear dynamics of the biological processes. Motivated by the above considerations, this work proposes an adaptive MPC algorithm for AP systems. To this end, a recursive subspace-based system identification approach is used to characterize the transient dynamics of biological systems, specifically the metabolic processes involved in diabetes. Subsequent to system identification, an adaptive MPC algorithm is designed using the recursively identified models to effectively compute the optimal insulin delivery for AP systems. A feature extraction method based on glucose measurements is used to detect rapid deviations from the desired set-point caused by significant disturbances and subsequently modify the constraints of the optimization problem for negotiating between the aggressiveness and robustness of the controller to suggest the required amount of insulin. The efficacy of the proposed adaptive MPC is demonstrated using the UVa/Padova metabolic simulator (Dalla Man et al., 2014). 452

2. PRELIMINARIES In this section, a brief overview of the glucose–insulin dynamic model and the formulation of the nonlinear observer for parameter estimation is provided, followed by a review of the PBSID algorithm for the identification of linear, time-varying state-space models. 2.1 Adaptive Personalized State and Parameter Observer The Hovorka’s model, a glucose–insulin dynamic model, is used for designing an estimator of the insulin present in the bloodstream, called plasma insulin concentration (PIC) (Hovorka et al., 2004; Hajizadeh et al., 2017a). The model has different compartments to characterize the blood glucose dynamics, the subcutaneous insulin infusion, and the glucose transport from plasma to interstitial tissues. Incorporating uncertainty in the dynamics of the discrete-time system (referred to as process noise) and noise in the measurements, the model can be written in the form xk+1 = f (xk , uk , θk ) + wk , wk ∼ N (0, Q(x) ) (1)

(2) yk = g (xk , uk , θk ) + vk , vk ∼ N (0, R(v) ) n m p where x ∈ R , u ∈ R and y ∈ R denote the vectors of state, input, and output variables, respectively, with the output as the continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) measurements and the input variable is the infused insulin. The vectors w ∈ Rn and v ∈ Rp denote the vectors of process and measurement noises, respectively, and θ denotes the vector of uncertain time-varying model parameters. In the simultaneous state and parameter estimation approach, the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) algorithm is used to recursively   compute both the state and parameter ˆ estimates x ˆ, θ at each sampling instance (Kol˚ as et al., 2009). To achieve the simultaneous estimation, the original model is transformed by treating the parameters to be T  estimated as additional states with xk := xTk θkT the augmented state vector including the uncertain model parameters. The new system for simultaneous state and parameter estimation is     f (xk , uk , θk ) (3) f  xk , uk := θk   g  xk , uk := g (xk , uk , θk ) (4)   for the where w and v denote the vectors  process and  ,(x) := (x) (θ) observation noise, Q and R,(v) := diag Q , Q

R(v) denote the covariance matrix and variance of the process and measurement noises, respectively, with Q(θ) the covariance of the normally distributed random stochastic noise in the parameters. The augmentedstate estimation (θ) (x) error covariance is Pk := diag Pk , Pk . Bounds on the states and parameters can be similarly augmented as xL ≤     T T T T and xU := xTU θU xk ≤ xU , where xL := xTL θL denote the lower and upper bounds on the augmented state vector. Employing the state and parameter estimation approach with Hovorka’s model allows for simultaneously estimating the PIC, which is a state variable in the model, along with other time-varying parameters. A nonlinear observer for the simultaneous estimation of the state variables and the time-varying parameters can be designed as

where x ˆ denotes the estimated augmented state vector and K is the observer gain chosen such that the observer error dynamics are asymptotically stable. The proposed PIC estimator can be individualized by appropriately initializing the time-varying parameters using partial least squares regression (Hajizadeh et al., 2017a). The proposed PIC estimator is able to capture the inter- and intrasubject variabilities to provide accurate information on the amount of insulin present in the body, which is used to determine the constraints on the MPC formulation.

where f is the future window length. 2.2 Recursive Subspace-Based System Identification A stable, reliable, and computationally tractable dynamic model is essential for the design of model-based predictive control algorithms in AP systems. To this end, the predictor-based subspace identification approach is implemented to track the time-varying linear system and is coupled with a constrained optimization solver to guarantee the stability of the model (Houtzager et al., 2012; Hajizadeh et al., 2017b, 2018a). Consider a vector autoregressive with exogenous variables (VARX) model yˆk|k−1 =

where yˆk|k−1 is the predicted output for the kth sampling instance using the past inputs uk , . . . , uk−p and outputs yk−1 , . . . , yk−p . The VARX model parameter p is the length of the past window of data considered when predicting the future outputs. The coefficient matrices θu and θy are readily estimated though recursive least square (RLS) techniques at each sampling time. Furthermore, the stacked vector yk−p,p is defined with respect to the past  T T T T window of length p as yk−p,p = yk−p yk−p+1 . . . yk−1 . Stacked vector uk−p,p is also similarly defined. Recognizing that the predicted state x ˆk is given by p

x ˆk = A x ˆk−p + Luk−p,p + Kyk−p,p

The product of the matrices Γ L and Γ K can be constructed from the VARX model coefficient matrices as 453

Therefore, after estimating the VARX coefficient matrices, the estimated coefficient matrices θu and θy can be used to determine all quantities on the right-hand side of eq. 9, and a SVD factorization can be used to readily obtain a low-rank approximation of the state sequence. For recursive identification, a selection matrix S of appropriate dimensions can be determined such that the basis of the state estimation is consistent at each sampling time as   (10) x ˆk = Sk Wk Γ Luk−p,p + Γ Kyk−p,p where Wk is a pre-defined weight matrix and the selection matrix S can be recursively updated through the projection approximation subspace tracking (PAST) method (Chiuso, 2007). The estimated state sequence is then employed along with the inputs and measured outputs to estimate the system matrices by solution of RLS problems. Specifically, after computing an estimate of the state sequence x ˆk , two RLS problems that ensure stability of the estimated system are used to determine the state-space matrices, thus yielding the identified model x ˆk+1 = Ak x ˆ k + B k u k + Kk e k (11) yk = C k x ˆ k + D k uk + e k where A, B, C, and D are the system matrices, K is the Kalman gain matrix, and ek = yk − yˆk for feedback correcting the state variables. The data-driven model determined from the subspacebased system identification technique is integrated with a physiological insulin compartment model derived from Hovorka’s model (Hajizadeh et al., 2018b). Considering a delay of order d and assuming no direct feedthrough term in the state-space model (that is Dk = 0), we can write ˆk + Bk Ik−d + Kk ek x ˆk+1 = Ak x (12) yk = C k x ˆ k + ek The PIC variable in Eq. 12, denoted I, is a filtered insulin to handle time-delays and discrete or impulse variations, which can be obtained from the compartment model with injected basal and bolus insulin as the input variable. To this end, the compartment model in Eq. 1 is integrated with the recursively identified model Eq. 12 yielding ˜ k uk ˜ˆk + B x ˜ˆk+1 = A˜k x (13) ˆ˜k yˆk = C˜k x with the new state vector of T  ˆ˜k = x (14) x ˆTk+3+d Ik+2 and the output

3. ADAPTIVE MPC ALGORITHM In this section, the glycemic and plasma insulin risk indexes, PIC bounds, the feature extraction for manipulating constraints and the adaptive MPC formulation are presented. Glycemic Risk Index A glycemic risk index (GRI) is used to determine the weighting matrix, denoted Q (ˆ yk+d+3 ), for penalizing the deviations of the outputs from their nominal set-point (Rashid et al., 2018). The glycemic risk index asymmetrically increases the set-point tracking weight when the off-line predicted CGM yˆk+d+3 diverges from the target range. Plasma Insulin Risk Index A plasma insulin penalty index (PIRI), denoted γk+d+3 , is defined to manipulate the weighting matrix for penalizing the amount of input actuation (aggressiveness of insulin dosing) depending on the estimated PIC, thus suppressing the infusion rate if sufficient insulin is present in the bloodstream (Rashid et al., 2018). To this end, the time-varying positive definite weighting matrix Rk := R (γk+d+3 ) is developed from the PIRI as R (γk+d+3 ) := γk+d+3 · R, with R as a nominal weight and γk+d+3 defined as 2  PICk+d+3 γk+d+3 := (16) PICbasal,k+d+3 where

Idb,k+d+3 (17) VI · ke,k and Idb is the patient specific (possibly time-varying) basal insulin rate that is known in practice, and VI and ke are parameters of Hovorka’s model. PICbasal,k+d+3 :=

Plasma Insulin Concentration Bounds In the proposed MPC, the estimated future PIC is dynamically bounded depending on the value of the CGM measurements. For instance, if the CGM measurement values are elevated, the bounds on the PIC are increased to ensure sufficient insulin is administered to regulate the glucose concentration. Furthermore, the PIC bounds also constrain the search space in the optimization problem. The PIC bounds are determined based on the CGM measurements as XPIC := yk ), where XPIC defines the lower and upper (1 + Pmeal )X (ˆ bounds and a desired target for the normalized PIC through the estimated CGM yˆk and Pmeal is a parameter which modifies the bounds when there is a rapid increase in the CGM measurements. 3.1 Feature Extraction for Manipulating Constraints One of the main disturbances that an AP system faces is meal consumption. The blood glucose rises drastically after a meal and it is necessary to counteract this significant disturbance with the required amount of insulin infusion in a correct time. In order to detect meal consumption and give the insulin dose in a timely manner, several meal detection algorithms are developed (Samadi et al., 2017). In this work, we build upon these to handle the effects of meals and other disturbances that result in a rapid and persistent increase in the blood glucose. The new approach modifies the constraints if there is any rapid and significant 454

371

increase in the glucose measurements. Meal detection can be based on the qualitative description of segments of glucose time series data (Samadi et al., 2017). In this approach, features from the glucose measurement data are extracted using the first and second derivatives of a secondorder polynomial fitted to the last few measurement data. If the first-order derivative is positive and greater than a threshold while taking into consideration the sign of second derivative, the constraints are modified to make the controller more aggressive to suggest a sufficient insulin dose. At every sampling time, the approach estimates the coefficients of the following polynomial function Yk = pn1 × tk 2 + pn2 × tk 1 + pn3 .

(18)

where pn1 , pn2 and pn3 are the parameters of a secondorder polynomial fitted to the last few glucose measurement and tk is the sampling time. At each sampling instance, by updating Eq. 18, the Pmeal parameter is calculated by the first and second derivatives as follows:     Yk/T dm,1 if Y ≥ T d m,11 , Yk ≥ 0 k Pmeal = (19)    Yk/T dm,2 if Y ≥ T d m,11 , Yk < 0 k 



where the Yk and Yk are the first and second order derivatives at the last sampling time, the T dm,1 , T dm,2 and T dm,11 are patient-specific threshold parameters. 3.2 Adaptive MPC Formulation In this subsection, we propose a novel adaptive MPC algorithm cognizant of the PIC for computing the optimal insulin infusion rate. The proposed MPC formulation employs the glycemic and PIC risk indexes that manipulate the penalty weighting matrices in the cost function. To this end, the MPC computes the optimal insulin infusion over a finite horizon using the identified time-varying subspacebased models by solving at each ith sampling instance the following quadratic programming problem   nP P := arg min JnP ,i yˆi+d+3 , γk+d+3 , {uk }nk=0 {u∗k }k=0 u∈U   ˆ˜k+1 = Ak x ˆ˜k + Bk uk−d−3 , ∀k ∈ ZnP −1 x 0 ˆ˜k , ∀k ∈ ZnP s.t. yˆk = Ck x 0  x ˆ˜0 = x ˆ˜i x ∈ X (20) with the objective function nP nP   JnP ,i (·) := eTk Qi ek + uTk Ri uk k=0

Qk := Q (ˆ yk+d+3 ) is a positive semi-definite symmetric matrix used to penalize the deviations of the outputs from their nominal set-point, and R > 0, Rk := R (γk+d+3 ) is a strictly positive definite symmetric matrix to penalize the manipulated input variables. 4. RESULTS The efficacy of the proposed PIC cognizant MPC with the CGM feature extraction method is demonstrated using the UVa/Padova metabolic simulator. Overall 10 subjects are simulated for 12 days with varying times and quantities of meals consumed on each day. The times and amounts of meals are selected from specified ranges to evaluate the proposed MPC under real challenging realistic scenarios. The meal information is not utilized in the MPC algorithm as the controller is designed to regulate the (blood glucose concentration) BGC in the presence of significant disturbances such as unannounced meals. In order to handle the meal effects efficiently, the CGM feature extraction method is designed to make the MPC more aggressive. The controller set-point is specified to be 110 mg/dL. The model is designed with a delay of order d = 1 with regards to the effect of PIC on CGM. The quantitative evaluation of the closed-loop results based on the proposed PIC cognizant MPC algorithm using the CGM feature extraction method are presented in Table 1, which gives the percentage of samples in defined glycemic ranges and selected statistics for the glucose measurements. It is readily observed that no hypoglycemia occurs as the BGC is never below 70 mg/dL. The average percentage of time spent in the target range (BGC ∈ [70, 180] mg/dL) and the higher tier of BGC ∈ [180, 250] mg/dL are 74.6% and 25.0%, respectively. The BGC is thus tightly controlled to be within the safe range for a significant duration of time (Fig. 1). Although the BGC is tightly controlled to be within the safe range in both cases (Fig. 2), the results with the MPC that uses the feature extraction method show a superior performance especially during day time when the AP system is challenged by meals. The average percentage of time spent in the target range (BGC ∈ [70, 180] mg/dL) is improved by 12% and the mean and standard deviation of BGC are reduced by 10 and 5 mg/dL, respectively. Furthermore, the average maximum value of BGC is reduced by 17 mg/dL without any significant change in the average minimum value of BGC (a decrease of 0.5 mg/dL) and the injected insulin (manipulated variable) (an increase of 0.5 Unit of insulin per day). 5.

The subspace identification technique with recursive modeling renders the identified models valid over a diverse range of daily activities without requiring onerous and obscure information such as the amount of carbohydrate consumption. In addition to the PIC constraints, in order to better compensate for the effects of meal consumption, the rate of change of the glucose values (as determined by the derivatives of the CGM measurements) are computed in real time to modify the aggressiveness of the controller and give the required quantity of insulin in an appropriate amount of time. The proposed approach involving adaptation of the model, the penalty weights of the optimization cost function, and the constraints is necessary as the nonlinear and transient operating behavior of biological systems is difficult to characterize precisely. The adaptive models can well characterize the nonlinear and time-varying dynamics across various operating conditions by recursively updating the identified

models, thereby tailoring the models to the particular conditions of any given situation. This adaptive nature of the proposed technique results in good control performance, as demonstrated through the tight glucose control using the metabolic simulator. 6. CONCLUSION An adaptive MPC is proposed in this work for optimal insulin dosing decisions in AP systems using a recursive subspace-based system identification approach to characterize the transient dynamics of processes involved in diabetes. Subsequent to system identification, an adaptive MPC algorithm is designed using the recursively identified models to effectively compute the optimal insulin delivery for AP systems. A feature extraction method based on glucose measurements is used to detect rapid deviations from the desired set-point caused by significant disturbances and subsequently modify the constraints of the optimization problem for negotiating between the aggressiveness and robustness of the controller to suggest the required amount of insulin.
