What do you use SDEs for? I always skipped diff eq topics because I never had a sensible application for them in the social sciences.
We also use the parameters for artificial pancreas systems, in order to give personalized and optimized insulin dosages for each patient, using those same exact parameters. In this case, we use a controller (model predictive control) and plug in the individualized parameters into the controller interface for each individual patient. The system is interfaced with a mobile device, an insulin pump, and a continuous glucose monitor. The mobile device sends data from the insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor to the controller (input) and retrieves data from the controller (output) via the mobile device. Via the output, commands are issued to the insulin pump regarding insulin dosing.
