Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a cognitive health management system based on cognitive age, and also to a corresponding cognitive health management method, belonging to the field of health management technology. Background Technology
[0002] Cognitive health management systems, by assessing individual cognitive levels and providing personalized interventions and health management, are of great significance in delaying cognitive neurodegeneration in the elderly and promoting cognitive development in children. They can detect at-risk individuals early and, through continuous monitoring and personalized interventions, improve the quality of life for the elderly and the learning abilities of children.
[0003] Existing cognitive health management systems have certain limitations. For example, some can only assess a user's cognitive level through scale tests and activities, generating written reports, but cannot directly calculate cognitive age. Cognitive age is an important indicator that directly reflects the difference between a user's cognitive function and their actual age, and is crucial for users to understand the assessment results.
[0004] In addition, there is a cognitive age prediction system based on MRI brain imaging data. This system uses MRI data to analyze the gray matter volume of multiple cognitive regions of the brain, which can scientifically and accurately predict cognitive age. However, this method relies on MRI equipment and specialized image processing technology, which is costly, complex to operate, and requires highly skilled technicians. Moreover, the MRI scanning process may cause discomfort and psychological stress to users, making it unsuitable for large-scale widespread application. Summary of the Invention

[0066] Figure 2 The flowchart illustrates a cognitive health management method based on cognitive age, as provided in the second embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0067] The technical content of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0068] This invention provides a cognitive health management system based on cognitive age, comprising two parts: cognitive assessment and cognitive age analysis. Cognitive assessment is used to evaluate and test various cognitive abilities. Through a series of assessment tools and methods, the system can acquire user performance data across different cognitive dimensions. This data includes, but is not limited to, perception, attention, memory, and executive function. Cognitive age analysis calculates the user's cognitive age by analyzing the data obtained during cognitive assessment. Cognitive age is derived by comparing the user's cognitive score data with the performance of a standard population. This module uses specific algorithms to process and analyze the data, ultimately generating a cognitive age report for the user. The entire cognitive health management system aims to help users understand their own cognitive health status and, through monitoring and managing cognitive age, provide personalized suggestions for cognitive health maintenance and improvement.

The cognitive assessment unit 1 is used to conduct cognitive assessments on users, while the data collection unit 2, norm construction unit 3, age analysis unit 4, data processing unit 5, output unit 6, and feedback unit 7 are used together to perform cognitive analysis on users. The cognitive assessment and cognitive analysis processes are described in detail below:
[0071] I. Cognitive Assessment
[0072] In this embodiment of the invention, the cognitive assessment unit 1 has multiple preset cognitive training tasks to assess the user's cognition based on these tasks and obtain the user's cognitive score data. Specifically, the configuration of the multiple cognitive assessment tasks is as follows:
[0073] 1. Perception and Sensory Testing Module
[0074] This is used to measure children's time perception, spatial perception, motion perception, and processing speed. Specific items include:
[0075] (1) Time selection task
[0076] The time selection task required participants to look at the screen. When a bomb icon appeared on the screen, participants began to count silently in seconds. After the bomb icon changed to an explosion icon, participants selected the option closest to their count from the given choices.
[0077] (2) Origami Task
[0078] Participants were asked to imagine a square piece of paper, fold it according to their imagination, then imagine making a hole in it, and finally unfold it back into a square. After unfolding, participants were asked to select how many holes would appear on the paper and their locations.
[0079] (3) Random motion point task
[0080] The task involves displaying multiple moving points on the screen, some of which move in a single direction, either left or right. Participants are instructed to observe the trajectories of these points, identify those moving in a single direction (left or right), and click the corresponding arrow button.
[0081] (4) Symbol search task
[0082] The screen is divided into two parts: the first part contains two shapes, and the second part contains five shapes. Participants are asked to determine whether any of the five shapes in the second part contain one of the two shapes from the first part. If yes, they click the "with text" button; otherwise, they click the "no text" button.
[0083] 2. Attention Test Module
[0084] This measurement is used to assess children's alertness, focused attention, selective attention, and sustained attention. Specific items include:
[0085] (1) Alertness tasks
[0086] Participants were asked to look at the numbers on the screen and, as soon as the numbers started to increase, to click the "stop" button as quickly as possible to stop the increase.
[0087] (2) Click / Don't click the task
[0088] Two different stimuli are presented consecutively on the screen. Participants click on the stimulus that meets the requirements of the prompt. For example, participants click anywhere on the screen when they see a tiger, but do not click when they see a giraffe.
[0089] (3) Visual search task
[0090] Participants judged whether a target object appeared in the displayed material and responded quickly and accurately by pressing buttons. For example, they judged whether a green line existed among many red lines on the screen.
[0091] (4) Cancel the task
[0092] Participants are required to memorize the target images appearing in the image matrix and click on them in order from top to bottom and from left to right. Missed images cannot be retried. The test lasts for 3 minutes.
[0093] Preferably, the size of the graphic matrix is 15*10.
[0094] 3. Memory Test Module
[0095] Used to measure children's verbal working memory and memory span. Specific items include:
[0096] (1) Digital breadth forward and backward task
[0097] Participants were asked to memorize the numbers presented in sequence and repeat them in order.
[0098] (2) Number breadth backwards task
[0099] The participants memorized the numbers presented in sequence and then repeated them in reverse order.
[0100] 4. Suppression Control Module
[0101] Used to measure children's interference control and conflict inhibition. Specific items include:
[0102] (1) Lateral inhibition task
[0103] Participants were asked to focus on the graphic in the center of the screen, determine its orientation, and then click the corresponding directional button based on that orientation.
[0104] (2) Number comparison task
[0105] Participants were instructed to repeatedly switch selection criteria according to rules to suppress habitual thinking. For example: "Observe the values and sizes of the numbers on the left and right sides, and quickly select the corresponding numbers according to the questions. When switching questions, pay attention to the changes in the questions, and complete the task quickly and well."
[0106] II. Cognitive Age Analysis
[0107] In this embodiment, firstly, the cognitive score datasets of subjects in different age groups are pre-collected by the data collection unit 2. Then, the norm construction unit 3 constructs a norm distribution corresponding to each age group. Next, the age analysis unit 4 analyzes the user's cognitive score data to calculate the distance between the user's cognitive score data and the average value of the norm distribution for each age group. Then, the data processing unit 5 normalizes all distance values to output the probability value of the user belonging to each age group. Finally, the output unit 6 outputs the age group with the highest probability as the user's cognitive age. Finally, based on the user's cognitive age, the feedback unit 7 provides the user with personalized suggestions for maintaining and improving cognitive health.
[0108] The following is a detailed explanation of each unit:
[0109] 1. Data Collection Unit
[0110] In this embodiment, the data collection unit 2 pre-collected cognitive score data of normal children aged 6 to 12 years. Each year is considered an age group, with at least 100 subjects in each age group. Preferably, the number of normal subjects in each age group is the same; however, in other embodiments, the number may differ.
[0111] Furthermore, it is understood that each child needs to undergo cognitive assessments based on the aforementioned multiple cognitive training tasks to obtain their cognitive assessment scores for each task, which will serve as their cognitive score data. Therefore, once all children of the same age have completed the cognitive assessments, their combined cognitive score data constitutes the cognitive score dataset for that age group. In this embodiment, it is necessary to obtain the cognitive score dataset corresponding to each age group.
[0112] 2. Normative building blocks
[0113] In this embodiment, the norm construction unit 3 is connected to the data collection unit 2 to construct different norm distributions based on cognitive score datasets of different age groups.
[0114] Specifically, the norm distribution for each age group is constructed in the following way:
[0115] For any given age group, calculate the average M using the cognitive score data of all normal subjects within that age group. age and standard deviation SD age ;
[0116] Assuming that the cognitive scores of all normal subjects in this age group follow a normal distribution, based on the mean M age and standard deviation SD age Construct a norm distribution corresponding to this age group;
[0117] in,
[0118] N represents the number of subjects in each age group; i represents the subject number, i∈(1,N); X i This represents the cognitive assessment score of the i-th subject.
[0119] It is understandable that, due to the average value M corresponding to each cognitive score dataset... age and standard deviation SD age Since they are all different, each score dataset corresponds to a normal distribution.
[0120] 3. Age Analysis Unit
[0121] In this embodiment, the age analysis unit 4 is connected to the cognitive assessment unit 1 to receive the user's cognitive score data. Furthermore, the age analysis unit 4 is also connected to the norm construction unit 3 to calculate the distance between the user's cognitive score data and the average value of the norm distribution for each age group. The specific calculation process is as follows:
[0122] First, the users' cognitive score data are fed into the norm distribution corresponding to each age group;
[0123] Then, the distance D between the user's cognitive score data and the mean of the norm for each age group is calculated using the cumulative distribution function |0.5-Φ(X)| of the normal distribution. age D age =|0.5-Φ(X)|.
[0124] The cumulative distribution function |0.5-Φ(X)| is used to calculate the probability that the random variable X is less than or equal to the input value Z. For the norm distribution of any age group, the formula for the cumulative distribution function is as follows:
[0125]
[0126] erf represents the error function, defined as:
[0127] Where Z represents the input value of the cumulative distribution function; y represents the input value of the error function; and t represents the integration variable, used to define the integration range of the error function, representing the variable in each small interval during the integration process.
[0128] 4. Data Processing Unit
[0129] In this embodiment, the data processing unit 5 is connected to the age analysis unit 4 to normalize all distance values using the softmax function, thereby outputting the probability value of the user belonging to each age group. Specifically, the data processing process is as follows:
[0130] For any age group, the distance value D age The probability value P of a user belonging to this age group is calculated using the following formula.
[0131] Where M represents the total number of age groups; k represents the label of the age group, k∈(1,M); and e represents the exponential function with the natural number e as the base.
[0132] 5. Output Unit
[0133] In this embodiment, the output unit 6 is connected to the data processing unit 5, and the age group with the highest output probability is taken as the user's cognitive age.
[0134] Specifically, by indexing the multiple probability values P to find the probability value P with the largest value, the algorithm finds the probability value P with the largest value. final P final =argmax(P). Where argmax represents the index corresponding to the category with the highest probability, that is, the age with the highest probability is output as the final analysis result.
[0135] 6. Feedback Unit
[0136] In this embodiment, the feedback unit 7 is connected to the output unit 6 to provide personalized suggestions for maintaining and improving cognitive health based on the user's cognitive age.
[0137] It is understood that in this embodiment, through the synergistic effect of the data collection unit 2, the norm construction unit 3, the age analysis unit 4, the data processing unit 5, the output unit 6 and the feedback unit 7, the cognitive analysis of the user is realized, thereby outputting the user's corresponding cognitive age and personalized suggestions for maintaining and improving cognitive health.
[0138] In the above embodiments, preferably, the cognitive health management system is an app installed on an electronic device or an accessible website accessible through a browser. This meets the needs of continuous health management in the internet age, including family intervention and follow-up, avoiding the need for children and parents to spend excessive time and energy, and eliminating the impact of factors such as on-site conditions and the trainer's operational standards on the effectiveness of cognitive management.
[0139] Second Embodiment
[0140] like Figure 2As shown, based on the first embodiment described above, the second embodiment of the present invention provides a cognitive health management method based on cognitive age, specifically including steps S1 to S7:
[0141] S1: Conduct cognitive assessments on users based on a variety of preset cognitive training tasks and obtain users' cognitive score data.
[0142] Specifically, in this embodiment, a variety of preset cognitive training tasks can acquire user performance data across different cognitive dimensions. This data includes, but is not limited to, perception, attention, memory, and executive function. The specific task configuration is described in the first embodiment for cognitive assessment unit 1, and will not be repeated here.
[0143] S2: Based on a variety of pre-set cognitive training tasks, obtain cognitive score datasets of subjects of different age groups.
[0144] In this embodiment, before conducting cognitive analysis on users, it is necessary to collect cognitive score datasets of subjects in different age groups. Each cognitive score dataset consists of cognitive score data from multiple normal subjects in that age group.
[0145] In this embodiment, the subjects were normal children aged 6 to 12 years, with each age group consisting of one year, and at least 100 subjects in each age group. Each child was assessed through multiple pre-set cognitive training tasks to obtain their score on each task, which served as their cognitive score data. Thus, the cognitive score data of all children in the same age group collectively constituted the cognitive score dataset for that age group.
[0146] S3: Construct different norm distributions based on cognitive score datasets for different age groups.
[0147] After obtaining the cognitive score datasets of subjects of different age groups based on step S2, a norm distribution needs to be constructed for each cognitive score dataset. In this embodiment, the specific process of constructing the norm distribution can be referred to the description of norm construction unit 3 in the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0148] S4: Calculate the distance between the user's cognitive score data and the mean value of the norm distribution for each age group.
[0149] After constructing different norm distributions based on step S3, the user's cognitive score data obtained in step S1 needs to be input into each norm distribution to calculate the distance value D between it and the mean of the norm distribution for each age group. age .
[0150] Among them, regarding the distance value Dage The specific calculation process can be referred to the description of age analysis unit 4 in the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0151] S5: The softmax function is used to normalize all distance values, thereby outputting the probability value of the user belonging to each age group.
[0152] When different distance values D are calculated based on step S4 age Then, all distance values need to be normalized, and the distance value D will be normalized. age This is converted into a probability value P. The specific normalization process can be found in the description of data processing unit 5 in the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0153] S6: Output the age group with the highest probability as the user's cognitive age.
[0154] S7: Provide users with personalized suggestions for maintaining and improving their cognitive health based on their cognitive age.
[0155] In the above embodiments, preferably, the cognitive health management method further includes:
[0156] S8: Periodic feedback.
[0157] Specifically, a cognitive management cycle is one month. A cognitive assessment is conducted on users every three days, and their corresponding cognitive age is obtained. Therefore, after one cognitive management cycle (i.e., one month), a curve showing the user's cognitive age change during that cycle is displayed.
[0158] Understandably, by periodically providing users with feedback on their cognitive age changes, it can help them better understand themselves, allow them to more intuitively perceive their own changes, help them build confidence, and improve their initiative and compliance in cognitive management.
