Abstrakt: In this work, biologically-inspired computing framework is developed for HIV infection of CD4 T-cell model using feed-forward artificial neural networks (ANNs), genetic algorithms (GAs), sequential quadratic programming (SQP) and hybrid approach based on GA-SQP. The mathematical model for HIV infection of CD4 T-cells is represented with the help of initial value problems (IVPs) based on the system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The ANN model for the system is constructed by exploiting its strength of universal approximation. An objective function is developed for the system through unsupervised error using ANNs in the mean square sense. Training with weights of ANNs is carried out with GAs for effective global search supported with SQP for efficient local search. The proposed scheme is evaluated on a number of scenarios for the HIV infection model by taking the different levels for infected cells, natural substitution rates of uninfected cells, and virus particles. Comparisons of the approximate solutions are made with results of Adams numerical solver to establish the correctness of the proposed scheme. Accuracy and convergence of the approach are validated through the results of statistical analysis based on the sufficient large number of independent runs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
