A specialized 'Well-being index model' for treatments of metabolic syndrome

If a patient has metabolic syndrome, he needs to provide a large amount of personal information related to his disease periodically. Unfortunately, these recurrent questionnaires are not only making him feel uncomfortable, but also becoming prohibitive.

To solve the challengeable problems, we attempted to research numerous approaches with respect to the diagnosis and treatment of metabolic syndrome with Ajou University Hospital. As a result of this research, we developed a specialized ‘Well-being index model’ for treatments of metabolic syndrome, and also designed a context-aware system to deploy the index model in the real world.
