A Comparison of Different Models of Glycemia Dynamics for Improved Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Management with Advanced Intelligent Analysis in an Internet of Things Context

Abstract

The metabolic disease Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (DM1) is caused by a reduction in the production of pancreatic insulin, which causes chronic hyperglycemia. Patients with DM1 are required to perform multiple blood glucose measurements on a daily basis to monitor their blood glucose dynamics through the use of capillary glucometers. In more recent times, technological developments have led to the development of cutting-edge biosensors and Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) systems that can monitor patients’ blood glucose levels on a real-time basis. This offers medical providers access to glucose oscillations modeling interventions that can enhance DM1 treatment and management approaches through the use of novel disruptive technologies, such as Cloud Computing (CC), big data, Intelligent Data Analysis (IDA) and the Internet of Things (IoT). This work applies some advanced modeling techniques to a complete data set of glycemia-related biomedical features—obtained through an extensive, passive monitoring campaign undertaken with 25 DM1 patients under real-world conditions—in order to model glucose level dynamics through the proper identification of patterns. Hereby, four methods, which are run through CC due to the high volume of data collected, are applied and compared within an IoT context. The results show that Bayesian Regularized Neural Networks (BRNN) offer the best performance (0.83 R2) with a reduced Root Median Squared Error (RMSE) of 14.03 mg/dL.

An Investigation in Applying Internet of Things Approach in Safe Food Dietary Plan for Better Chronic Diabetes Management among Elderly Adults

“…A computer-based approach was developed to facilitate this particular purpose, which would use a mathematical model to simulate the activities of the pancreas; however, the revolutionary improvements now projected are expected to be recognized as a game-changer. ese still-in-development APs are thought to include a "Continuous Glucose Monitoring" (CGM) gadget that monitors real-time glucose levels for an individual and injects the necessary insulin, guided by applying a mathematical formula capable of replicating the "optimum glycemia equilibrium" [5].…”

“…It can also be used in handling larger datasets. The complexity of parameters can be handled by adjusting network complexity and its weight values [ 43 , 44 ]. Since it is non-parametric in nature, error is eliminated in estimating parameters.…”

Applications of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Big Data and the Internet of Things to the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Scientometric Review Using Text Mining

“…With this in mind, many infected countries are using mobile applications to carry out a digital contact tracing process, using a variety of technologies such as Bluetooth, global positioning system (GPS), contact data and smartphone tracking. A combination of big data and geographic information systems (GIS) is useful in this regard [72], as are IoT solutions [73] that follow the principles of other IoT-based disease management platforms [74]. Other technological solutions for social monitoring can also be implemented, such as the use of thermal cameras to detect individuals with fever [75].…”
