Allow to specify a target function #40

Closed rfaelens closed 3 years ago

We should be able to not only target a specific concentration, but a specific individual clinical utility function.

Example include:

  1. Eff=EMax(CONC) and Safety=EMax(CONC). CU = xEff - ySafety. Find the dose at which CU becomes optimal.
  2. fT = Time above target. Find the dose for which fT=70%.

We will start by creating an example using the current API. Based on this example, we will evaluate if more development is needed.

Therefore, we also need to specify not only "Find the dose that makes X = Y", but also "Find the dose that maximizes Y"
