  • Patent number: 11244762
    Abstract: A system for evaluating mental health of patients includes a memory and a control system. The memory contains executable code storing instructions for performing a method. The control system is coupled to the memory and includes one or more processors. The control system is configured to execute the machine executable code to cause the control system to perform the method: A selection of answers associated with a patient is received. The selection of answers corresponds to each question in a series of questions from mental health questionnaires. Unprocessed MRI data are received. The unprocessed MRI data correspond to a set of MRI images of a biological structure associated with the patient. The unprocessed MRI data is processed to output a set of MRI features. Using a machine learning model, the selection of answers and the set of MRI features are processed to output a mental health indication of the patient.

  • Publication number: 20210398685
    Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing machine learning to generate a trans-diagnostic classifier that is operative to concurrently diagnose a plurality of different mental health disorders using a single trans-diagnostic questionnaire that includes a plurality of questions (e.g., 17 questions). Machine learning techniques are used to process labeled training data to build statistical models that include trans-diagnostic item-level questions as features to create a screen to classify groups of subjects as either healthy or as possibly having a mental health disorder. A subset of questions is selected from the multiple self-administered mental health questionnaires and used to autonomously screen subjects across multiple mental health disorders without physician involvement, optionally remotely and repeatedly, in a short amount of time.

  • Patent number: 10769408
    Abstract: Method and system for automatic chromosome classification is disclosed. The system, alternatively referred as a Residual Convolutional Recurrent Attention Neural Network (Res-CRANN), utilizes property of band sequence of chromosome bands for chromosome classification. The Res-CRANN is end-to-end trainable system, in which a sequence of feature vectors are extracted from the feature maps produced by convolutional layers of a Residual neural networks (ResNet), wherein the feature vectors correspond to visual features representing chromosome bands in an chromosome image. The sequence feature vectors are fed into Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) augmented with an attention mechanism. The RNN learns the sequence of feature vectors and the attention module concentrates on a plurality of Regions-of-interest (ROIs) of the sequence of feature vectors, wherein the ROIs are specific to a class label of chromosomes.

  • Patent number: 10621474
    Abstract: The most challenging problems in karyotyping are segmentation and classification of overlapping chromosomes in metaphase spread images. Often chromosomes are bent in different directions with varying degrees of bend. Tediousness and time consuming nature of the effort for ground truth creation makes it difficult to scale the ground truth for training phase. The present disclosure provides an end-to-end solution that reduces the cognitive burden of segmenting and karyotyping chromosomes. Dependency on experts is reduced by employing crowdsourcing while simultaneously addressing the issues associated with crowdsourcing. Identified segments through crowdsourcing are pre-processed to improve classification achieved by employing deep convolutional network (CNN).
