摘要：AbstractAnemia is the condition in which patients suffer from the deficiency of the red blood cells to carry the oxygen in the body. One of the many causes of anemia is chronic kidney disease (CKD). CKD is a disease in which kidneys are partially or completely damaged, which results in a deficiency of the oxygen-carrying red blood cells. CKD is common in older people, and external human recombinant erythropoietin (EPO) is required to maintain healthy levels of hemoglobin (Hb). In order to effectively address the impact of inter and intra-individual variability in dose-response characteristics in CKD patients, individualized patient-specific models are required instead of traditional population-based models. In this research, individualized patient models are developed by using patient-specific time-domain data with robust system identification techniques. For control-oriented system identification, two robust identification techniques are investigated: (1) l1robust identification considering zero initial conditions and (2) Semi-blind robust system identification considering non-zero initial conditions. The performance of these two techniques is compared and it is shown that the Semi-blind robust identification technique gives better results as compared to l1robust identification.
