An approach to selecting an object represented on a touch screen display includes displaying a plurality of independent digital images on the touch screen display, indicating one of the plurality of independent digital images is selectable, detecting if interaction with the touch screen display is made while one of the plurality of independent digital images is indicated as selectable, and if interaction with the touch screen display is not made while the one of the plurality of independent digital images is indicated as selectable, indicating a subsequent digital image is selectable.

Approach for selecting a desired object on a small touch screen

Provided herein is a computer readable medium having instructions embodied therewith, the instructions executable by a processor or programmable circuitry of a computer to cause the processor or programmable circuitry to perform operations comprising: selecting a first set of reference training data from a training data set based on a degree of difference between each set of reference training data in the training data set and target training data; determining whether a degree of difference between the target training data and the first set of reference training data is below a first threshold; and determining whether to include the target training data in the training data set using at least a degree of difference between the target training data and at least one second set of reference training data, wherein the at least one second set of reference training data is included in the training data set and does not include the first set of reference training data.

Training data set determination

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a system dynamically monitors a patient's physiological condition and location information to generate an alarm signal to enable the patient to timely administer a health substance. Initially, the system monitors location information of a health substance and the patient and physiological information of the patient. A processor in the system determines a predicted time when the patient may attain a physiological condition for receiving the health substance and may further determine a transit time for the patient to travel to a location of the health substance. Based on the predicted and transit times, the system issues an alarm signal to the patient prior to the predicted time. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for monitoring a patient's physiological condition and location information to generate an alarm signal in substantially the same manner described above.
