Abstract
A system and method for quantifying Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk using one or more interferometric micro-Doppler radars (IMDRs) and deep learning artificial intelligence to distinguish between cognitively unimpaired individuals and persons with AD based on gait analysis. The system utilizes IMDR to capture signals from both radial and transversal movement in three-dimensional space to further increase the accuracy for human gait estimation. New deep learning technologies are designed to complement traditional machine learning involving separate feature extraction followed-up with classification to process radar signature from different views including side, front, depth, limbs, and whole body where some motion patterns are not easily describable. The disclosed cross-talk deep model is the first to apply deep learning to learn IMDR signatures from two perpendicular directions jointly from both healthy and unhealthy individuals. Decision fusion is used to integrate classification results from feature-based classifier and deep learning AI to reach optimal decision.
