Abstract

Non-invasive Glucose Measurement (NGM) technology makes great sense for the blood glucose management of patients with hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia. Individual Discrepancies (IDs), e.g., skin thickness and color, not only block the development of NGM, but also become the reason why NGM cannot be widely used. To solve this problem, our solution is designing an individual customized NGM model that can measure these discrepancies through multi-wavelength and tune parameters for glucose estimating. In this paper, an NGM prototype is designed, and a learning model for glucose estimating with automatically parameters tuning based on Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and Random Forest (RF) is presented. The clinic trial proves that the correlation coefficient between estimation and reference Blood Glucose Concentration (BGC) can reach 0.5 after merely 10 times of learning, and rise to 0.8 after about 60 times of learning.

Summary

Introduction

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder of multiple aetiologies characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia with disturbances of carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both [1]. Blood Glucose Measurement technology is necessary for people whose blood glucose is unbalanced to control their glucose level. Boyd has pointed out that a blood glucose measurement with an error of less than 10% every 5 min can significantly reduce the harm caused by hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia [4]. Most of the blood glucose meters currently available on the market are invasive, which needs to puncture the fingers to collect blood as a measurement sample. This measurement method will cause pain to the patient and is not convenient for young children, which can lead to inefficient self-monitoring and is not suitable for continuous glucose monitoring
