Uncertainty quantification in neural network-based glucose prediction for diabetes
In this work, we investigate uncertainty-aware neural network models for blood glucose prediction and adverse glycemic event identification in Type 1 diabetes. We consider three families of sequence models based on LSTM, GRU, and Transformer architectures, with uncertainty quantification enabled by either Monte Carlo dropout or through evidential output layers compatible with Deep Evidential Regression. Using the HUPA-UCM diabetes dataset for validation, we find that Transformer-based models equipped with evidential output heads provide the most effective uncertainty-aware framework, achieving consistently higher predictive accuracies and better-calibrated uncertainty estimates whose magn...
