Among them, the terminal 102 communicates with the server 104 through the network. The data storage system can store the data that the server 104 needs to process. The data storage system can be set up separately, integrated on the server 104, or placed on the cloud or other servers. The terminal 102 can send a data set to the server 104. After the server 104 receives the data set, for the data set, the server 104 obtains the data set, the data set includes the score of each question when each subject is subjected to various forms of cognitive tests; each form of cognitive test includes multiple questions; the subjects include people with cognitive impairment and normal people; the questions in the various forms of cognitive tests are classified to obtain a set of questions corresponding to each cognitive function category; the importance of each question in each form of cognitive test is determined according to the data set; for any cognitive function category, the preferred question set corresponding to the cognitive function category is determined according to the importance of each question in the question set corresponding to the cognitive function category; the tester is tested according to the test question set to obtain the tester's score for each question in the test question set; the test question set includes a preferred question set corresponding to each cognitive function category; the tester's cognitive function evaluation result is obtained according to the test question set. The server 104 may feed back the obtained cognitive function score of the tester to the terminal 102. In addition, in some embodiments, the cognitive function evaluation method may also be implemented by the server 104 or the terminal 102 alone, such as the terminal 102 may directly perform cognitive function evaluation on the data set, or the server 104 may obtain the data set from the data storage system and perform cognitive function evaluation on the data set.

[0047] The terminal 102 may be, but is not limited to, various desktop computers, laptop computers, smart phones, tablet computers, IoT devices, and portable wearable devices. The IoT devices may be smart speakers, smart TVs, smart air conditioners, smart vehicle-mounted devices, etc. The portable wearable devices may be smart watches, smart bracelets, head-mounted devices, etc. The server 104 may be implemented as an independent server or a server cluster consisting of multiple servers, or may be a cloud server.

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, a cognitive function assessment method is provided, which is executed by a computer device, and can be executed by a computer device such as a terminal or a server alone, or by a terminal and a server together. In the embodiment of the present application, the method is applied to Figure 1 The server 104 in FIG. 1 is used as an example to illustrate the method, which includes the following steps, wherein:

[0049] Step 201: Obtain a data set, the data set including the scores of each question when each subject is subjected to various forms of cognitive tests; each form of cognitive test includes multiple questions; the subjects include people with cognitive impairment and normal people. The subject data comes from cohorts in many different regions of China, including people in southern and northern China, covering a wide range. The questions are in Chinese and based on Chinese culture, with localized characteristics to reduce cultural background differences.

[0050] Step 202: Classify the questions in various forms of cognitive tests to obtain a set of questions corresponding to each cognitive function category.

[0051] Step 203: Determine the importance of each question in each form of cognitive test according to the data set.

[0052] Step 204: For any cognitive function category, determine a preferred topic set corresponding to the cognitive function category according to the importance of each topic in the topic set corresponding to the cognitive function category.

[0053] Step 205: Test the test subject according to the test question set to obtain the test subject's score for each question in the test question set; the test question set includes a preferred question set corresponding to each cognitive function category.

[0054] Step 206: Obtain the tester's cognitive function assessment result based on the tester's score for each question in the test question set. The assessment result is cognitive dysfunction and normal cognitive function.

[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, various forms of cognitive tests include:

[0056] Mini-Mental State Examination, Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR), Digit Symbol Transfer Test, Digit Span, Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test, Line Drawing Test, Stroop Color-Word Test, Verbal Fluency, Clock Drawing Test, Digit Symbol Transfer Test, Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test and Boston Naming Test.

[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, determining the importance of each question in each form of cognitive test according to the data set specifically includes:

[0058] A variance analysis was performed on the data set to obtain the F value for each question.

[0059] Determine the F value of the question to determine the importance of the question.

[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, determining a preferred set of topics corresponding to the cognitive function category according to the importance of each topic in the set of topics corresponding to the cognitive function category specifically includes:

[0061] Using a k-best algorithm, sorting each question in the question set corresponding to the cognitive function category according to the importance of each question in the question set corresponding to the cognitive function category to obtain a sorted set;

[0062] The first M questions in the sorted set are selected to form a preferred question set corresponding to the cognitive function category.

[0063] In an exemplary embodiment, cognitive function categories include:

[0064] Attention function, executive function, language function, visual-spatial function, orientation function and memory function.

[0065] In an exemplary embodiment, the evaluation result of the cognitive function of the tester is obtained according to the tester's score for each question in the test question set, specifically including:

[0066] According to the formula Get the score of the tester's cognitive function, where y represents the score of the tester's cognitive function, x1 represents the score of the first question in the test question set, W1 represents the weight of x1, x2 represents the score of the second question in the test question set, W2 represents the weight of x2, and x n represents the score of the nth question in the test question set, and Wn represents x n , n is the total number of questions in the test question set, and ln() represents the logarithmic function with the constant e as the base.

[0067] The evaluation result of the cognitive function of the tester is obtained according to the score of the cognitive function of the tester. Specifically, if the score is greater than the threshold, the cognitive function is normal, and if the score is less than the threshold, the cognitive function is impaired.

[0068] This application has the following technical effects:

[0069] 1. Easy to operate and promote, and to establish relatively uniform standards for screening and testing, which can evaluate the cognitive status of the subjects, so as to assist clinicians in better understanding the cognitive status of the tested persons.

[0070] 2. Currently, the most widely used screening scales in the world are MMSE and MoCA. According to a cross-sectional survey in China, there are major problems with the scoring standards of MMSE and MoCA for people with different educational levels, which poses great difficulties in clinical evaluation and screening. This application develops a tool by collecting data from multiple Chinese population cohorts. The threshold of this tool is fixed, and its sensitivity and specificity are better than MMSE and MOCA in the Chinese population.

[0071] 3. MMSE has more language function assessments, up to 9 points (out of 30 points), and lacks executive function. In addition, studies have found that MMSE has a significant ceiling effect and is more suitable for screening people with dementia. This application generates a set of test questions based on multiple test forms in multiple cognitive domains, covering a comprehensive range of cognitive domains, and can simultaneously identify mild cognitive impairment and dementia, avoiding the ceiling effect.

[0072] 4. MoCA executive function involves less, only 2 points (total score 30 points). In terms of language function assessment, the naming pictures selected by MoCA have always been questioned by some experts and scholars due to cultural background differences. This application selects a large number of test questions that are in line with the Chinese cultural background, which is more suitable for the Chinese population. By distributing test questions more evenly in various cognitive domains, the comprehensiveness of the test is guaranteed.

[0073] 4. Other screening scales include the cognitive abilities screening instrument (CASI), which evolved from the MMSE and has different versions, but is less popular than the MMSE and MoCA. Scales originating from abroad lack domestic reliability and validity testing. This application was tested through longitudinal follow-up data from different domestic cohort studies, confirming good reliability and validity.

[0074] 5. The Memory and Executive Screening (MES) is a Chinese scale with good reliability and validity, but the screening data population is mainly for subjects with memory impairment, and the screening effect on other cognitive disorders has not been tested. This application generates a test question set through test questions in different cognitive domains, ensuring the examination of multiple cognitive domains, and can screen people with cognitive impairment affected by different cognitive domains.

[0075] 6. The self-assessment screening scale includes the Cognitive Function Self-Assessment Scale (Ascertaindementia 8, AD8), and the Informed Questionnaire for Dementia includes the Informed Questionnaire on Cognitive Decline in the Elderly (IQCODE) and the Alzheimer's Disease Questionnaire. These scales require the informed person of the subject to make judgments, and have a strong correlation with the subjectivity of the informed person or the subject himself. The reliability of the self-assessment scale is limited when the subject has cognitive impairment. At present, these test scales still lack unified judgment standards, and most of them require doctors to make their own judgments based on experience. All test questions in this application directly test the subject himself, and the questions are evaluated and objectively scored by others, which reduces subjectivity, and there are currently clear thresholds for screening cognitive dysfunction.

[0076] 7. It can comprehensively evaluate cognitive functions, including attention function, executive function, language function, visual-spatial function, orientation function and memory function, and relatively accurately identify different cognitive domain damages of cognitive impairment. This application can be completed in a relatively short time (8-10 minutes), which can achieve rapid screening and early warning of abnormal cognitive ability.

[0077] like Figure 3 As shown, the present application also provides a more specific embodiment to introduce the cognitive function assessment method provided in the above embodiment in detail:

[0078] Data collection: A database related to cognitive impairment diseases was established based on the enrolled population. The enrolled population included people with cognitive impairment (Alzheimer's disease and vascular cognitive impairment) and community controls (normal people). The database related to cognitive impairment diseases includes the commonly used MMSE, MoCA, CDR, digit symbol conversion test, digit span, Rey-Osterrieth complex figure test, line connection test, Stroop color word test, verbal fluency, clock drawing test, digit symbol conversion test, Rey auditory word learning test and Boston naming test. The enrolled population completed the questions in each cognitive test, each question was a test item, and the test information of all enrolled subjects was built into a database related to cognitive impairment diseases. A total of 1,032 subjects were enrolled in this test, of which 41.2% were people with cognitive impairment. All enrolled subjects completed multiple cognitive tests and had more cognitive results.

[0079] Data integration: An evaluation test pool was generated based on the test content of the data collection part, that is, all the above scales. There are 153 items in this test pool. The scoring features were screened through machine learning methods (k-best), and finally 9 questions were generated based on different cognitive domains (including memory function, executive function, language function, visual-spatial function, orientation function, and judgment).

[0080] Build method:

[0081] Step 1. Data preparation: The 153 items were divided into 6 categories. The number of items in each category was different. The 153 items are shown in Table 1.

[0082] Table 1

[0083]

[0084]

[0085]

[0086]

[0087]

[0088] Step 2. Define the evaluation criteria: Select the F value of Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) as the evaluation criterion to assess the importance of each item.

[0089] Step 3. Intra-category feature selection: For each category, use the k-best method to evaluate their performance in the overall dataset based on the importance solved in step 2, select 1-2 most representative items, and use k-best to select cross-category items. Before using the k-best method, a constraint should be set to ensure that at least 1 item is selected for each category, and finally 9 items are selected for all categories.

[0090] Step 4. Output results: Finally, 9 items are output, 1-2 in each category. These items are the most representative items selected according to the k-best method and evaluation criteria. The results are shown in Tables 2 and 3.

[0091] Model construction: Taking the presence or absence of cognitive impairment as the outcome variable, we included the questions that met the requirements and performed logistic regression. The logistic regression formula is as follows:

[0092]

[0093] Among them, x1 is to inquire whether there is cognitive decline, x2 is orientation - asking about the city / year / date, x3 is continuous 100-7 calculation (5 times), x4 is money conversion calculation questions, x5 is number repetition, x6 is clock drawing experiment (3 points), x7 is similarity and difference judgment, x8 is short-term memory, and x9 is picture naming.

[0094] Evaluation: New participants will complete the corresponding tests in Table 2, and generate corresponding scores y according to the weights. The specific scoring methods for each item are shown in Table 3. The higher the score in this test, the better the cognitive performance, which can provide a reference for clinicians to evaluate the cognitive status of the participants.
