RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Objective ADHD Diagnosis Using Convolutional Neural Networks Over Daily-Life Activity Records A1 Amado-Caballero, Patricia A1 Casaseca de la Higuera, Juan Pablo A1 Alberola López, Susana A1 Andres-de-Llano, Jesus Maria A1 Villalobos, Jose Antonio Lopez A1 Garmendia-Leiza, Jose Ramon A1 Alberola López, Carlos AB Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurobehavioral disorder in children and adolescents. However, its etiology is still unknown, and this hinders the existence of reliable, fast and inexpensive standard diagnostic methods. Objective: This paper proposes an end-to-end methodology for automatic diagnosis of the combined type of ADHD. Methods: Diagnosis is based on the analysis of 24 hour-long activity records using Convolutional Neural Networks to classify spectrograms of activity windows. Results: We achieve up to 97.62% average sensitivity, 99.52% specificity and AUC values over 99%. Overall, our figures overcome those obtained by actigraphy-based methods reported in the literature as well as others based on more expensive (and not so convenient) acquisition methods. Conclusion: These results reinforce the idea that combining deep learning techniques together with actimetry can lead to a robust and efficient system for objective ADHD diagnosis. Significance: Reliance on simple activity measurements leads to an inexpensive and non-invasive objective diagnostic method, which can be easily implemented with daily devices.
