Digital tool measures movement patterns during social interaction to support autism diagnosis
Overview of the digital ADOS process, where sensors yield biometric data that are analyzed by signal processing tools in a machine learning approach to differentiate between patient type and group.
Invention Summary:
The Autism Diagnosis Observation Schedule (ADOS) is the gold standard for autism diagnosis. However, a significant number of...

Standardized Individual Pain Assessment Tool
A pipeline for utilizing facial, motor, and cardiac signals to measure an individual’s pain threshold
Invention Summary:
Self‐reporting of a person’s subjective level of pain is highly variable. This is due to individual differences in the way human beings experience pain. At present, no objective physiological scale of pain exists...

Novel Quantitative & Objective Analytical Tool for Detecting Neurodevelopmental Delays in Infants
Invention Summary:
Neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g. autism) are on the rise. They are the byproduct of a lengthy maturation process that starts at conception and manifests disarray with high certainty during infancy, when dysfunction of the child’s nervous systems becomes apparent to the naked eye. By three years of age, observational diagnoses...

Novel Quantitative Analytical Tool for Assessing Neurological Functions in Human Subjects
Tracking statistical signals from both mental and physical activities
Invention Summary:
Cognitive Neuroscience research uses cortical-related activity to infer various functional and anatomical aspects of the brain. However, this is done in a rather disembodied way, discounting the feedback from bodily biorhythms. In contrast, fields like Behavioral...
