A bioreactor-based architecture for in vivo model-based and sim-to-real learning control of microbial consortium composition

Sara Maria Brancato, Davide Salzano, Davide Fiore +3

Microbial consortia offer significant biotechnological advantages over monocultures for bioproduction. However, industrial deployment is hampered by the lack of scalable architectu…

In vivo learning-based control of microbial populations density in bioreactors

Sara Maria Brancato, Davide Salzano, Francesco De Lellis +3

A key problem toward the use of microorganisms as bio-factories is reaching and maintaining cellular communities at a desired density and composition so that they can efficiently c…

CT-DQN: Control-Tutored Deep Reinforcement Learning

Francesco De Lellis, Marco Coraggio, Giovanni Russo +2

One of the major challenges in Deep Reinforcement Learning for control is the need for extensive training to learn the policy. Motivated by this, we present the design of the Contr…

External control of a genetic toggle switch via Reinforcement Learning

Sara Maria Brancato, Francesco De Lellis, Davide Salzano +2

We investigate the problem of using a learning-based strategy to stabilize a synthetic toggle switch via an external control approach. To overcome the data efficiency problem that…

Intermittent yet coordinated regional strategies can alleviate the COVID-19 epidemic: a network model of the Italian case

Fabio Della Rossa, Davide Salzano, Anna Di Meglio +10

The COVID-19 epidemic that emerged in Wuhan China at the end of 2019 hit Italy particularly hard, yielding the implementation of strict national lockdown rules (Phase 1). There is…
