20120203166 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING GLYCEMIC DATA - Apparatus for processing a glycemic value, having: a transformer for transforming the glycemic value into a transformed glycemic value, wherein the transformer is configured for applying a transform rule to the glycemic value, the transform rule having a combination of a first logarithmic term having a logarithm of the glycemic value, and of a second linear term having a linear contribution of the glycemic value, wherein the transform rule is such that, for each glycemic value of a set of glycemic values having more than one glycemic value, the first logarithmic term and the second linear term both influence the corresponding transformed glycemic value. | 08-09-2012 |
20120209091 | Apparatus and Method for Processing a Set of Data Values - An apparatus for processing a set of data values, a data value representing a physiological measure of a body fluid at a time instant, comprising: an estimated probability function calculator for calculating an estimated probability function associated with the set of data values; a transform calculator for calculating a non-linear transform rule using a predetermined target probability function being different from the estimated probability function, so that the probability function of a set of transform data values is closer to the target probability function than the estimated probability function; and a transformer for applying the transform rule to the set of data values or to at least one further data value not included in the set of data values and sampled at the different time instant from the time instants for the set of data values to obtain at least one transformed value representing the physiological measure. | 08-16-2012 |
20120209099 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR GENERATING A CONDITION INDICATION - An apparatus for generating a condition indication using a time sequence of data values, each data value representing a physiological measure of a condition of a subject at a time, includes: a transformer for transforming the time sequence of data values into a transformed sequence of data values using a transform rule, wherein the transform rule is such that a certain characteristic in a time course of the physiological measure is represented by the transformed sequence of data values is more linear than the time course before the transform; a rate of change calculator for calculating an estimated rate of change for the transformed sequence of data values; and a processor for processing the estimated rate of change to output the condition indication. | 08-16-2012 |
20150019139 | METABOLIC MONITORING, A METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INDICATING A HEALTH-RELATED CONDITION OF A SUBJECT - An apparatus for indicating a health-related condition of a subject has an input interface for receiving a sequence of samples of a first biological quantity derived by a first measurement method, the first measurement method being an invasive measurement and having a first impact on the subject, and for receiving a sequence of samples of a second biological quantity derived by a second measurement method, the second measurement method being a non-invasive measurement and having a second impact on the subject, wherein the first biological quantity gives a more accurate indication of the health-related condition of the subject than the second biological quantity, wherein the first biological quantity and the second biological quantity have a correlation to the health-related condition of the subject, and wherein the second impact is smaller than the first impact; a predictor for providing, for a certain time, for which no sample for the first biological quantity exists, an estimated value of the first biological quantity using samples for the first biological quantity and, as far as available, samples for the second quantity; and an output interface for outputting the estimated value or data derived from the estimated value so that an indication for the health-related condition of the subject is obtained. | 01-15-2015 |
