Using Machine Learning techniques to understand glucose fluctuation in response to breathing signalsKaramichalis, Nikolaos January 2021 (has links)
Blood glucose (BG) prediction and classification plays big role in diabetic patients' daily lives. Based on International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2019, 463 million people are diabetic globally and the projection by 2045 is that the number will rise to 700 million people. Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) systems assist diabetic patients daily, by alerting them about their BG levels fluctuations continuously. The history of CGM systems started in 1999, when the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first CGM system, until nowadays where the developments of the system's accurate reading and delay on reporting are continuously improving. CGM systems are key elements in closed-loop systems, that are using BG monitoring in order to calculate and deliver with the patient's supervision the needed insulin to the patient automatically. Data quality and the feature variation are essential for CGM systems, therefore many studies are being conducted in order to support the developments and improvements of CGM systems and diabetics daily lives. This thesis aims to show that physiological signals retrieved from various sensors, can assist the classification and prediction of BG levels and more specifically that breathing rate can enhance the accuracy of CGM systems for diabetic patients and also healthy individuals. The results showed that physiological data can improve the accuracy of prediction and classification of BG levels and improve the performance of CGM systems during classification and prediction tasks. Finally, future improvements could include the use of predictive horizon (PH) regarding the data and also the selection and use of different models.
