Diabetes mellitus is a common disease of human body caused by a group of metabolic disorders where the sugar levels over a prolonged period is very high. It affects different organs of the human body which thus harm a large number of the body's system, in particular the blood veins and nerves. Early prediction in such …
This paper provides a ML framework for diabetes prediction and care management.
Paper develops NN models for diabetes screening using NHANES data.
Artificial intelligence (AI) will pave the way to a new era in medicine. However, currently available AI systems do not interact with a patient, e.g., for anamnesis, and thus are only used by the physicians for predictions in diagnosis or prognosis. However, these systems are widely used, e.g., in diabetes or cancer pr…
CopulaSMOTE addresses class imbalance in diabetes prediction models.
Machine learning detects subtle glucose changes for early diabetes diagnosis.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic disease that often results in multiple complications. Risk prediction and profiling of T2DM complications is critical for healthcare professionals to design personalized treatment plans for patients in diabetes care for improved outcomes. In this paper, we study the risk of …
SDRF estimates complex survey designs for conditional distributions.
New method interprets deep embeddings for diabetes patient clustering.
According to the American Diabetes Association(ADA), 30.3 million people in the United States have diabetes, but only 7.2 million may be undiagnosed and unaware of their condition. Type 2 diabetes is usually diagnosed for most patients later on in life whereas the less common Type 1 diabetes is diagnosed early on in li…
Reinforcement Learning improves insulin bolus decisions for type-I diabetes patients.
Develops a SAS approach for high-dimensional risk prediction using unlabeled data.
Prediction of disease onset from patient survey and lifestyle data is quickly becoming an important tool for diagnosing a disease before it progresses. In this study, data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) questionnaire is used to predict the onset of type II diabetes. An ensemble model…
HAD-Net forecasts glucose levels with insights into insulin and carbs diffusion.
A method models continuous-time glucose distributions in children with diabetes.
Background: Predictive modeling is a key component of solutions to many healthcare problems. Among all predictive modeling approaches, machine learning methods often achieve the highest prediction accuracy, but suffer from a long-standing open problem precluding their widespread use in healthcare. Most machine learning…
Study discovers patterns in insulin needs for T1D patients.
A new method improves efficiency in finding optimal personalized treatment rules.
A new algorithm discovers causal factors between T2DM and bone mineral density.
Diabetes is a major public health problem in the United States, affecting roughly 30 million people. Diabetes complications, along with the mental health comorbidities that often co-occur with them, are major drivers of high healthcare costs, poor outcomes, and reduced treatment adherence in diabetes. Here, we evaluate…
Many sequential decision-making tasks require choosing at each decision step the right action out of the vast set of possibilities by extracting actionable intelligence from high-dimensional data streams. Most of the times, the high-dimensionality of actions and data makes learning of the optimal actions by traditional…
Machine learning detects NASH patients from medical claims data.
RETAIN model improves glucose forecasting for diabetics, offering both accuracy and interpretability.
Deep learning detects diabetic retinopathy stages from single fundus photos.
New model predicts blood glucose in diabetics with improved accuracy.
Patients with Type I Diabetes (T1D) must take insulin injections to prevent the serious long term effects of hyperglycemia - high blood glucose (BG). Patients must also be careful not to inject too much insulin because this could induce hypoglycemia (low BG), which can potentially be fatal. Patients therefore follow a …
Diabetes is a globally prevalent disease that can cause visible microvascular complications such as diabetic retinopathy and macular edema in the human eye retina, the images of which are today used for manual disease screening. This labor-intensive task could greatly benefit from automatic detection using deep learnin…
Objective: To evaluate unsupervised clustering methods for identifying individual-level behavioral-clinical phenotypes that relate personal biomarkers and behavioral traits in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) self-monitoring data. Materials and Methods: We used hierarchical clustering (HC) to identify groups of meals with simila…
Health professionals can use natural language processing (NLP) technologies when reviewing electronic health records (EHR). Machine learning free-text classifiers can help them identify problems and make critical decisions. We aim to develop deep learning neural network algorithms that identify EHR progress notes perta…
2 Diabetes is a leading worldwide public health concern, and its increasing prevalence has significant health and economic importance in all nations. The condition is a multifactorial disorder with a complex aetiology. The genetic determinants remain largely elusive, with only a handful of identified candidate genes. G…
Hybrid model learns interpretable meal-level glycemic control.
Neural network training entails heavy computation with obvious bottlenecks. The Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) programming model allows us to accelerate computation by passing the processing workload from the CPU to the graphics processing unit (GPU). In this paper, we leveraged the power of Nvidia GPUs to …
25% of people who received a liver transplant will go on to develop diabetes within the next 5 years. These thousands of individuals are at 2-fold higher risk of cardiovascular events, graft loss, infections, as well as lower long-term survival. This is partly due to the medication used during and/or after transplant t…

Understanding public health opinions on social media, such as Twitter, offers a unique approach to characterizing common health issues such as diabetes, diet, exercise, and obesity (DDEO), however, collecting and analyzing a larg…
Deep neural network predicts diabetic readmission with high accuracy.
Reliable microaneurysm detection in digital fundus images is still an open issue in medical image processing. We propose an ensemble-based framework to improve microaneurysm detection.
