AI-based Solution for Dementia Patients: Built by Biz4Group

The project is the creation of a revolutionary mobile application, aimed at enhancing the quality of life for early- to mid-stage dementia patients, that can assist in everyday cognitive tasks, problems, and social interactions.

OVERVIEW

Project Overview

Having entered the patient’s name, place of birth, daily schedule, and relatives’ names, the app offers several options that allow users to stay oriented and recall their past. In addition to its storage function, the app can support journaling for the patient where they are presented with the opportunity to write something every day, thus exercising the patient’s routine thought process.

Key Features

brainstorming-quiz

01.

Brainstorming quiz

Users can engage in a daily quiz filled with interactive questions tailored to their life, journal entries, and profile details.

02.

Daily Journaling

Daily within the app, the patient is encouraged to keep a diary in which he/she records his/her activities of the day.

Challenges and Solutions

While developing the application, our team has gone through the following challenges and applied relevant solutions, regarding the project:

Challenges

Development of a Mathematical Model to Measure Cognitive Performance

The other challenge of creating an algorithm for calculating and tracking patient’s cognitive capabilities was in defining the effects of dementia on different types of cognition.


Investing in a Chatbot for Emotional Interaction Analysis

Whether it is for giving support or offering feedback, it was paramount to ensure that the chatbot could comprehend the kind of emotions the patients had.

SOLUTIONS

The team used a machine learning model that permits the quantitative evaluation of test scores and daily journal entries to come up with an overall measure of cognitive ability through time.

Using the NLP features of GPT-4, the team designed the chatbot, which would be able to comprehend emotion-related signals from patient interactions. The chatbot is not only kind but also enables the caregivers to receive emotional data relating to the patient to improve care plans.

Challenges

Challenges of dealing with a large patient database

Managing such large amounts of data about patients, their identities, daily routines, and cognitive abilities was one of the main difficulties concerning data storage and findability as well as data confidentiality.


Monitoring if Patients Take and Fill Their Daily Journal Every Day

People with dementia may sometimes fail to remember simple things like completing forms.

SOLUTIONS

This app was created using PostgreSQL – a fast and effective relational database management system considered one of the most powerful. This helps in ensuring that the app can handle large volumes of data and at the same time can process this data, without having to compromise on the quality of the data.

The app is also equipped with reminders and notifications, designed to help patients fill oult their journals daily. Plans are made in such a way that patients will be reminded gently but adequately so that they can keep a check on their routine without stressing themselves or getting frustrated.

Technology Stack

 

Ionic + React

A great synergy for developing cross-platform mobile applications that the applications themselves may provide a good and sleek UX/UI across iOS and Android.

FastAPI

A high-performance web framework used to build the app’s backend; it allows for the creation of APIs at a high speed which are necessary for the organization of data.

GPT-4

It is used for the chatbot functionality, GPT-4 offers superior natural-language understanding, allowing the app to engage with patients by recognizing their emotional state.

PostgreSQL

A scalable, comprehensive and extensible open-source relational database management system to deal with the large volumes of data collected from the patients, such as the demographics.
