Mental Health, Intellectual and Neurodevelopmental Disorder Detection With Artificial Intelligence Models

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Solicue Machine Learning Models: A comprehensive machine-learning tool aimed at providing probability estimates for several compatible disorders, including Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Bipolar Affective Disorder (BPAD), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD). By offering a multi-diagnostic assessment based on speech analysis, Solicue aims to assist clinicians in navigating this complexity and potentially identifying conditions that might otherwise be overlooked in initial assessments. Solicue leverages machine learning to analyze a wide range of clinically relevant speech features, including linguistic content, prosodic elements (such as pitch, rhythm, and intonation), and other paralinguistic features.

Mercuria Machine Learning Models: Mercuria is designed to stratify the risk of bipolar disorder in individuals presenting with depressive symptoms. This is a critical clinical need, as misdiagnosis of bipolar disorder as unipolar depression is common and can lead to inappropriate treatment, potentially worsening outcomes. By analyzing speech patterns characteristic of bipolar disorder, Mercuria aims to provide an additional tool for clinicians to differentiate between these conditions more accurately, guiding appropriate treatment decisions. Mercuria leverages machine learning to analyze a wide range of clinically relevant speech features, including linguistic content, prosodic elements (such as pitch, rhythm, and intonation), and other paralinguistic features.

Study summary

This study investigates whether AI-driven analysis of speech can accurately predict clinical diagnoses and assess risk for various mental or behavioral health conditions, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and schizophrenia. We aim to develop tools that can support clinicians in making more accurate and efficient diagnoses.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Speech Battery ("PSY-10") audio — At initial assessment
  The speech battery consists of prompt-based tasks designed to elicit speech responses from participants in the form of monologues. This includes text reading, recall, and picture description tasks.
• Clinical diagnosis — 0 months, 3 months, 6 months
  Clinician diagnosis will be recorded for each participant at first assessment, 3-month, and 6-month follow-up. Diagnoses will be made according to ICD-11 or DSM-5 criteria for the compatible disorders: ADHD, ASD, BPAD, GAD, MDD, OCD, PTSD, and SSD. Additional relevant labels such as other mental health disorders, clinical high risk (CHR) and substance use may be recorded.
• Performance of AI models — 0 months, 3 months, 6 months
  The performance of the Mercuria and Solicue AI models will be evaluated using performance metrics of accuracy, balanced accuracy, sensitivity (recall), specificity, positive predictive value (precision), negative predictive value, F1 score, AUC-ROC. Predicted labels will be compared with the ground truth clinical diagnoses obtained from the participating mental health clinics. Confidence acceptance threshold will be set.
