[0135] Further, in the present invention, the distance calculation formula uses the Euclidean distance, where the Euclidean distance is the prior art content in the field and is not the creative solution of this application, so it will not be elaborated here.

[0136] Further, the specific steps for calculating the distance matrix between every two different modal data in the multi-modal dataset include:

[0137] (1) Obtain the preprocessed multi-modal dataset;

[0138] (2) Select pairs of different modal data from the preprocessed multi-modal dataset to form data pairs. For example, for data of three modalities: speech, eye movement, and electroencephalogram, the distance matrices of three combinations: speech-eye movement, speech-electroencephalogram, and eye movement-electroencephalogram need to be calculated;

[0139] (3) Use the Euclidean distance formula to calculate the distance value for each data pair;

[0140] (4) Create an empty distance matrix;

[0141] (5) Fill the calculated distance values into the corresponding positions in the matrix to obtain the distance matrix. For example, for the distance values of the speech - eye movement data pairs, fill them into the first row and second column and the second row and first column of the matrix.

[0145] Further, the horizontal fixation entropy is obtained by calculating the product of the probability that the abscissa value of the r - th fixation point appears and the corresponding logarithm value , and then summing up for all fixation points.

[0146] The vertical fixation entropy is obtained by calculating the product of the probability that the ordinate value of the r - th fixation point appears and the corresponding logarithm value , and then summing up for all fixation points.

[0147] C6: Pre - process the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal, divide the pre - processed EEG signal into different frequency bands, calculate the power of each frequency band, and calculate the power ratio between the frequency bands according to the power of each frequency band to obtain the EEG power ratio feature; The pre - processing includes filtering and denoising;

[0148] Further, the power of each frequency band is the mean value of the discrete EEG signal over the signal length.

[0149] Further, the power ratio between the frequency bands is the ratio of the frequency - band powers of different EEG signals.​​

[0150] C7: Combine the extracted voice response delay features, eye movement focus distribution entropy values, and electroencephalogram power ratio features to form a cross-modal feature vector.

[0152] D1: Obtain the cross-modal feature vector, organize the cross-modal feature vector to ensure that the feature vector dimensions of each sample are consistent, including voice response delay, eye movement focus distribution entropy value, and electroencephalogram power ratio features. At the same time, perform standardization processing on the cross-modal feature vector to obtain the standardized cross-modal feature vector. In the present invention, the Z-score standardization method is adopted, and the Z-score standardization method is the prior art content in the field and not the creative solution of this application, so it will not be elaborated here;

[0153] D2: Input the standardized cross-modal feature vector into the LSTM layer of the pre-trained LSTM-decision tree fusion diagnosis model. Among them, the LSTM layer can process sequence data, capture the time-dependent relationship and long-term memory information in the standardized cross-modal feature vector, and the LSTM is the prior art content in the field and not the creative solution of this application, so it will not be elaborated here;

[0154] D3: The LSTM layer performs feature extraction and dimensionality reduction on the input standardized cross-modal feature vector to obtain the main feature vector. Among them, the LSTM layer controls the inflow, outflow, and memory update of information through a series of gating mechanisms, such as input gates, forget gates, and output gates, to extract feature representations;

[0155] D4: Transmit the main feature vector output by the LSTM layer to the decision tree fusion layer. Among them, the decision tree fusion layer consists of multiple decision trees, and each decision tree classifies and judges the input main feature vector according to different features and rules;

[0156] D5: Each decision tree classifies the input main feature vector according to the preset feature division rules of itself to obtain its own judgment results on the type and degree classification of the disorder, and comprehensively combines the judgment results of multiple decision trees through a weighted fusion method to obtain the final type and degree classification of the disorder. Among them, the weighted fusion is the prior art content in the field and not the creative solution of this application, so it will not be elaborated here;

[0157] Exemplarily, for example, mild, moderate, and severe correspond to the numerical values 1, 2, and 3 respectively.

[0158] D6: Based on the determined obstacle type and degree grading, combined with the pre-set evaluation criteria, generate a quantitative evaluation report and output the quantitative evaluation report in the form of text or table.
