Rapid and precise estimation of glycosylated serum protein (GSP) of human serum is of great importance for the treatment and diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. In this study, we propose a novel method for estimation of GSP level based on the combination of deep learning and time domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR) transverse relaxation signal of human serum. Specifically, a principal component analysis (PCA)-enhanced one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) is proposed to analyze the TD-NMR transverse relaxation signal of human serum. The proposed algorithm is proved by accurate estimation of GSP level for the collected serum samples. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is compared with 1D-CNN without PCA, long short-term memory network (LSTM) and some conventional machine learning algorithms. The results indicate that PCA-enhanced 1D-CNN (PC-1D-CNN) has the minimum error. This study proves that proposed method is feasible and superior to estimate GSP level of human serum using TD-NMR transverse relaxation signals.
