Abstract

In a noninvasive system for detection/measurement of analytes in tissue, spectra from the medium are deconstructed into features. Conditioned features, which contain frequency components specific to the analytes, are derived from one or more features after modulating a carrier kernel with the feature. The conditioned features are computationally collided with one or more Zyotons that are co-dependent with the conditioned features. One or more collisions amplify the energy absorbed by the analyte from radiation directed to the tissue. The value of the amplified energy is transformed into an accurate estimate of the concentration of the analyte. Depending on the analyte type, a particular tissue region is targeted and/or one or more parameters of the computational collision are selected.
