  • Patent number: 10878964
    Abstract: Presented herein are methods, and devices of adaptively tuning a zone based Model Predictive Control (MPC) controller, using at least one processor, which include determining, residuals based on prediction models storing, in a memory, the determined residuals, calculating a trust index by quantifying uncertainty of the prediction models using the stored residuals and tuning the MPC controller, in real time based on the calculated value of the trust index.

  • Publication number: 20180353112
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a hypoglycemia prediction algorithm (HPA) specifically designed for the unique postprandial glycemic patterns characteristic of PBH. This algorithm can predict impending hypoglycemia by performing a series of steps. The steps can include collecting data from at least one sensor. The data can comprise a concentration of glucose in the bloodstream of a subject. The data can be processed using the HPA and impending glucose concentrations can be calculated. The method can then provide for determining whether the predicted glucose concentrations are lower than a hypoglycemic threshold parameter. In response to determining that the predicted glucose concentrations are lower than the hypoglycemic threshold parameter, the method can provide for enacting an impending hypoglycemia protocol.
