Detection of Meals and Physical Activity Events From Free-Living Data of People With Diabetes

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Diagnostic accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

The meal and exercise times detected by the RNN models can be used to warn people for entering meal and exercise information to hybrid closed-loop automated insulin delivery systems. Reliable accuracy for event detection necessitates powerful ML and large data sets. The use of additional sensors and algorithms for detecting these events and their characteristics provides a more accurate alternative.
