Autonomous Estimation of Patients’ Neuropsychological State Using Convolutional Neural Networks

The number of patients with neuropsychological problems is increasing rapidly in the world. Autonomous methods are replacing the traditional diagnosis methods in the detection and classification of many mental and neurological problems. Machine learning algorithms and especially deep neural networks are able to diagnose various neurological and psychological complications automatically. In this paper, a machine learning-based framework is used for autonomous estimation of patients’ neuropsychological state. The proposed framework can automatically diagnose the neuropsychological state of the patients and present a personalized solution for their problems. A convolutional neural network is used for the automatic profiling of patients and to classify their mental state according to their EEG signals. The proposed framework can be used to help patients to have better life experiences.
