Subject-Conditioned Glucose Forecasting in Type-1 Diabetes

AI Summary

Existing glucose prediction methods often rely on population-level representations or implicit personalization strategies, which struggle to accurately capture individual physiological differences. To address this limitation, this work proposes SCGP—a multimodal deep learning architecture that explicitly learns compact individualized representations and leverages them to conditionally model glycemic dynamics for high-precision personalized forecasting. The approach innovatively decouples individual trait extraction from temporal glucose modeling, thereby avoiding premature fusion of heterogeneous inputs and enabling an end-to-end conditional prediction framework. Experimental results on two authoritative datasets demonstrate that SCGP significantly improves multi-step prediction accuracy and reliably provides early warnings for both hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic events across varying time horizons.

Abstract

Accurate forecasting of blood glucose concentration is key in the management of Type 1 Diabetes, facilitating early detection of adverse glycemic events and supporting timely therapeutic interventions. Despite recent advances in glucose prediction, most existing approaches rely on population-level representations or implicit personalization strategies that fail to deliver effective subject-specific forecasts. In this work, we propose Subject-Conditioned Glucose Prediction (SCGP), a novel multimodal deep learning architecture conceived for personalized blood glucose prediction. SCGP conditions glucose predictions based on observed glucose data and a compact subject-specific representation learned from contextual information. By explicitly separating subject characterization from glucose dynamics modeling and avoiding early fusion of heterogeneous inputs, the proposed framework effectively captures inter-subject variability while preserving robust and reliable temporal modeling. Experiments on two state-of-the-art benchmark datasets demonstrate that SCGP consistently improves forecasting performance, enabling reliable detection of adverse glycemic events across multiple prediction horizons, highlighting the benefits of explicit subject conditioning for personalized diabetes management.
