This study introduces a novel meta-learning method to enhance diabetes detection using wearable sensor systems in smart health applications. Wearable sensor technology often needs to operate accurately across a wide range of users, each characterized by unique physiological and behavioral patterns. However, the specific data for a particular application or user group might be scarce. Moreover, collecting extensive training data from wearable sensor experiments is challenging, time-consuming, and expensive. In these cases, meta-learning can be particularly useful. This model can quickly adapt to the nuances of new users or specific applications with minimal data. Therefore, to solve the need for a huge amount of training data and to enable the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in data-scarce scenarios, a meta-learning method is proposed. This meta-learning model has been implemented to forecast diabetes, resolve cross-talk issues, and accurately detect R peaks from overlapping electrocardiogram (ECG) signals affected by movement artifacts, poor electrode contact, electrical interference, or muscle activity. Motion artifacts from body movements, external conditions such as temperature, humidity, and electromagnetic interference, and the inherent quality and calibration of the sensor can all contribute to noise. Contact quality between the sensor and the skin, signal processing errors, power supply variations, user-generated interference from activities like talking or exercising, and the materials used in the wearable device also play significant roles in the overall noise in wearable sensor data and can significantly distort the true signal, leading to erroneous interpretations and potential diagnostic errors. Furthermore, discrete wavelet transform (DWT) was also implemented to improve the quality of the data and enhance the performance of the proposed model. The demonstrated results confirmed that with only a limited amount of target data, the proposed meta-learning and DWT denoising method can adapt more quickly and improve the detection of diabetes compared to the traditional method. Therefore, the proposed system is cost-effective, flexible, faster, and adaptable, reduces the need for training data, and can enhance the accuracy of chronic disease detection such as diabetes for smart health systems. |
