A breathing sequence may define a suggested breathing pattern. Based on signal data collected by a user device, an initial breathing pattern that includes a cyclic pattern may be estimated. A first period of the breathing sequence may be initiated by generating a breathing sequence element based on a synchronization of the cyclic pattern with the breathing sequence. The breathing sequence element may fluctuate during a second period of the breathing sequence in accordance with a breathing profile associated with the suggested breathing pattern.

Measuring and monitoring the glucose and other blood elements through high accuracy non-invasive method. The proposed approach is based on TS Fuzzy model in order to modeling the proportion of each component in blood. This model determine the degree of absorption for each component and allows the measurement of glucose with more degree of accuracy.

The proposed method use Monte Carlo Simulation in order to measuring the path-length of photon in different tissues. We develop a modified Monte Carlo Algorithm based on TS Fuzzy model. Then, we can determine several concentration of elements in blood by using this method. On the other hand, we propose a novel laser diode in order to measuring concentrations of different blood components. The proposed diode give a de-multiplexing of enter light to several wavelengths needed for determination of element concentration in blood by using Bear Lambert Law. Two methods are proposed or this end, Silicon On Isolator method and Photonic Crystal method. We develop Multiplexer/De-Multiplexer based on one of these method in order to decompose the incident light to wavelength needed by system. Third part, concern the modification of regression approach by using TS Fuzzy model in order to give more accuracy in measurement of glucose level in blood. The regression methods studies are linear regression and ordinary least square regression.
