• Abstract summary: We propose a new digital biomarker for cognitive abilities based on location eigenbehaviour obtained from contactless ambient sensors. The reconstruction error is used to predict cognitive ability scores collected at baseline, using linear regression. Prediction performance is strong for high levels of cognitive ability, but grows weaker for low levels of cognitive ability.

• Abstract: With growing usage of machine learning algorithms and big data in health applications, digital biomarkers have become an important key feature to ensure the success of those applications. In this paper, we focus on one important use-case, the long-term continuous monitoring of the cognitive ability of older adults. The cognitive ability is a factor both for long-term monitoring of people living alone as well as an outcome in clinical studies. In this work, we propose a new digital biomarker for cognitive abilities based on location eigenbehaviour obtained from contactless ambient sensors. Indoor location information obtained from passive infrared sensors is used to build a location matrix covering several weeks of measurement. Based on the eigenvectors of this matrix, the reconstruction error is calculated for various numbers of used eigenvectors. The reconstruction error is used to predict cognitive ability scores collected at baseline, using linear regression. Additionally, classification of normal versus pathological cognition level is performed using a support-vector-machine. Prediction performance is strong for high levels of cognitive ability, but grows weaker for low levels of cognitive ability. Classification into normal versus pathological cognitive ability level reaches high accuracy with a AUC = 0.94. Due to the unobtrusive method of measurement based on contactless ambient sensors, this digital biomarker of cognitive ability is easily obtainable. The usage of the reconstruction error is a strong digital biomarker for the binary classification and, to a lesser extent, for more detailed prediction of interindividual differences in cognition.

  This research presents a novel self-supervised method for mental workload modelling from EEG data. The method is a convolutional recurrent neural network trainable with spatially preserving spectral topographic head-maps from EEG data to fit the brain rate variable. Findings point to the existence of quasi-stable blocks of learnt high-level representations of cognitive activation because they can be induced through convolution and seem not to be dependent on each other over time, intuitively matching the non-stationary nature of brain responses.
