  • Publication number: 20180110472
    Abstract: A system determines onset of a prediabetic state and associated risk of type 2 diabetes without evidential symptoms. In an implementation, a computer implemented method for monitoring an onset and progress of prediabetes in an individual includes periodically capturing an insulin level of an individual and a blood glucose level of the individual over a predetermined time interval for a predefined period, deriving an insulin production trend or a relative insulin resistivity trend over the predefined period, wherein the relative insulin resistivity is a ratio of an insulin level and a blood glucose level, wherein the trends are indicative of trend categories comprising an increasing trend, a steady trend and a decreasing trend, and determining a status of prediabetes in the individual based on at least one of the insulin production trend, relative insulin resistivity trend, and personal data of the individual.

  • Publication number: 20170263156
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for recommending a set of insulin dosages for a patient. The method estimates a blood glucose level of the patient using a physiological glucose-insulin module based on a set of patient-related information. Thereafter, an insulin dosage calculator calculates the set of insulin dosages based on an output of the physiological glucose-insulin module and contextual information associated with the patient. Finally, the set of insulin dosages are presented to the patient.

  • Publication number: 20170209115
    Abstract: The invention provides a method and system of separating and locating a plurality of acoustic sources in a human body. The system includes a plurality of sensors, a processing unit and an output device. The method includes recording a plurality of signals by utilizing the plurality of sensors, wherein the plurality of sensors are arranged about one or more portions of the human body. A signal processing technique is applied for separating a plurality of sets of statistically independent sounds from the plurality of signals. Thereafter, a correlation technique is applied on the plurality of sets of statistically independent sounds to obtain a plurality of sets of reference signal dependent sounds. Finally, an advance acoustic location technique is applied on each of the plurality of sets of reference signal dependent sounds to locate the plurality of acoustic signal sources.

  • Publication number: 20160070871
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for recommending an optimum insulin bolus dosage to a patient is described. The computer-implemented method includes receiving diabetes related data from the patient. The computer implemented method further includes determining a plurality of insulin bolus dosages using a plurality of insulin bolus calculators. The plurality of insulin bolus dosages are calculated based on the diabetes related data. Thereafter, an optimum insulin bolus dosage is determined based on the plurality of insulin bolus dosages. The optimum insulin bolus dosage is then presented to the patient.

  • Publication number: 20150073754
    Abstract: The invention provides method and system for calculating indices for diabetes control. The method and system involves collecting a plurality of blood glucose (BG) data of a subject and calculating a Blood Glucose Control Index (BGCI) value and a Severe Hypoglycemia Risk Index (SHRI) value based on parameters calculated using the plurality of BG data. The BGCI and SHRI values reflects a current state of diabetes of the subject. Further, the BGCI and SHRI values provides an indication if the subject may face a secondary complication associated with diabetes, such as, severe hypoglycemia in the future.

  • Patent number: 7356373
    Abstract: A method and device for producing ring tones in high polyphony in real-time in a network component such as a mobile terminal or a server of a service provider. The network component has one or more ring tones in MIDI files of high polyphony, and a MIDI player of lower polyphony for producing sounds from the scaled down version of the MIDI files in real-time. In order to produce sounds indicative of the high-polyphony ring tones in real-time, the high-polyphony MIDI files are converted to compressed files in a non real-time manner. The converted files are stored in a storage so as to allow a compressed file player (such as Truetone, MP3, wav, AAC, RealAudio, Vorbis) to produce sounds from the converted files. A file lock is provided to the converted files so that they cannot be forwarded, thereby protecting the copyrights of the ring tone composer.

  • Publication number: 20050028209
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method in a digital mobile station (MS), which mobile station (MS) for a wireless transmission connection comprises at least one or more digital signal processors (DSP) or corresponding processing means for generating a digital transmission signal flow (DTR). According to the invention, said one or more digital signal processors (DSP) or corresponding processing means are controlled to generate, instead of a digital transmission signal flow (DTR), one or more digital video signal flows (DV, DCV) from image material stored in or transmitted into the memory (MEM) of the mobile station (MS), which one or more digital video signal flows are further led to a digital or analog video output (Vout) of the mobile station (MS). The video output (Vout) can be generated, for example, as an analog composite video signal or a digital video signal according to the IEEE 1394 standard.

  • Patent number: 6138091
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method by means of which more than one audio signal can be recorded in compressed form in a memory element, and to a system implementing such a method. In the system according to the invention, audio signal samples are recorded only when voice is detected in the audio signals. The system according to the invention saves memory capacity required by the recording by combining the audio signal samples when voice is detected in samples of more than one audio signal. Furthermore, an audio signal is not recorded when no voice is detected in the signal. The invention also reduces the average computing capacity needed and thus power consumption, since signal combination, or mixing, is advantageously performed only when voice is detected in the samples of more than one audio signal.
