Computational Decision Support System for ADHD Identification
Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common disorder among children. ADHD often prevails into adulthood, unless proper treatments are facilitated to engage self-regulatory systems. Thus, there is a need for effective and reliable mechanisms for the early identification of ADHD. This...

Summary: | Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common disorder among children. ADHD often prevails into adulthood, unless proper treatments are facilitated to engage self-regulatory systems. Thus, there is a need for effective and reliable mechanisms for the early identification of ADHD. This paper presents a decision support system for the ADHD identification process. The proposed system uses both functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data and eye movement data. The classification processes contain enhanced pipelines, and consist of pre-processing, feature extraction, and feature selection mechanisms. fMRI data are processed by extracting seed-based correlation features in default mode network (DMN) and eye movement data using aggregated features of fixations and saccades. For the classification using eye movement data, an ensemble model is obtained with 81% overall accuracy. For the fMRI classification, a convolutional neural network (CNN) is used with 82% accuracy for the ADHD identification. Both ensemble models are proved for overfitting avoidance. |
