Chiron: Transforming Health Assessment with AI-Powered Parkinson’s Diagnosis

What is it?

Chiron is a cutting-edge mobile application designed to provide users with a comprehensive understanding of their likelihood of having Parkinson’s disease in under 60 seconds. The app combines innovative technology with a user-friendly interface to offer a range of features that empower users to take control of their health and access valuable information and resources.

The Model

At its core, Chiron utilizes a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) machine learning model to assess the user’s likelihood of having Parkinson’s disease based on their spiral and wave drawings with 87% accuracy. These drawings are a unique and non-invasive way to capture subtle motor impairments associated with Parkinson’s disease. The CNN model is trained on a refined dataset to ensure a high level of diagnostic accuracy. Additionally, the app tracks critical features, including the length of spiral or wave drawings, as well as the speed and standard deviation velocity. By analyzing features from the pixel data extracted from the user’s drawn input, Chiron generates a personalized prognosis, helping users make informed decisions about seeking medical advice.

Knowledge

Beyond its diagnostic capabilities, Chiron is a hub of knowledge and support for Parkinson’s disease. Users can access a wealth of information about the disease, including its symptoms, treatment options, and the latest medical advancements. This knowledge empowers users to understand their condition better and make informed choices about their healthcare journey.

Support

In addition to providing information, Chiron connects users with support resources. It offers links and contact details for support groups, healthcare professionals, and institutions specializing in Parkinson’s disease care. Users can easily find local support groups and healthcare experts to guide them through their diagnosis and treatment journey. Chiron aims to bridge the gap between individuals and the Parkinson’s disease community, fostering connections and a sense of community for users as they navigate their diagnosis and treatment.
