Abstract
A method and a system are provided for taking biomarker measurements of patients who have ADHD. Mathematical analysis (e.g., pattern recognition, machine learning and AI algorithms) of the biomarker measurements is used to create a unique personal prediction model and data set for an individual patient. The unique personal data set is used to diagnose and monitor a particular problem of the individual patient associated with ADHD, or to recommend a treatment for a particular problem of the individual patient associated with ADHD, or to predict an outcome of a treatment for a particular problem of the individual patient associated with ADHD.
Claims9
A method for implementing an intelligent monitoring of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) of a subject in a computing environment by a processor, comprising:
- receiving biomarker measurements of a plurality of subjects, each of whom has ADHD and has not been given any medication, the biomarker measurements being collected by biomarker sensors comprising a heart rate variability sensor for measuring heart rate variability or inter-bit interval between heart rate peaks, and an accelerometer or gyroscope;
- repeating the step of receiving biomarker measurements after each of the subjects has been given a medication for treating ADHD;
- executing machine learning logic to create clusters of the subjects, each of said clusters being based on sex, age, and comorbidities of the subjects, and also based on said biomarker measurements made before and after each of the subjects has been given a medication for treating ADHD, wherein for a particular cluster a variance in said biomarker measurements used to create said particular cluster is smaller than a variance in biomarker measurements of patients not in said particular cluster;
- executing machine learning logic to learn an effect of the medication for treating ADHD on said biomarker measurements of an individual in said particular cluster, by using discriminant analysis to generate a discriminant vector of a subset of said biomarker measurements that changed more than others of said biomarker measurements for said individual, and using said discriminant vector to create a personal profile for said individual that includes a baseline set of data based on the biomarker measurements before being given said medication and a prediction pattern based on the biomarker measurements after being given said medication;
- identifying and recommending one or more treatment changes to be implemented by said individual to increase treatment effectiveness;
- receiving subject feedback, as feedback data, with respect to an effectiveness of the one or more treatment changes implemented by said individual;
- and
- executing the machine learning logic to re-learn the effect of the medication for treating ADHD on said biomarker measurements and use the feedback data to iteratively optimize said discriminant vector to enhance effectiveness of future treatment changes recommended to be implemented by said individual.
