  • Publication number: 20230277162
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to system, method and apparatus for forming ML sessions so that an AI system can identify, track and diagnose a user through the user's bathroom sessions. As used herein, a session is a period of time during which a user is active in the toilet. The session may include certain inactivity if such inactivity lasts only for a predefined duration. In an exemplary embodiment, a system is configured to capture images of excreta and, using ML algorithms, classifies the toileting session using Digital Biomarkers (DBMs). The ability to create an excreta log to accurately deliver detailed information to doctors and healthcare providers can revolutionize healthcare by notifying when further urine or fecal screening is necessary. The disclosed embodiments of ML and image identification through AI requires no user behavior change and provides a link between medical records and specific excreta patterns.
