Project Title: Proposing Health Indicators for Modelling and Prediction of Selected Biological Aspects in Human Communities

Funding Agency: IOE FRP Delhi University, Delhi                              Amount: 5L Year: 2024-25

Sanction Letter No and Date: IoE/2024-25/12/FRP dated 30.08.2024

Objectives of the Proposal

  • Develop AI-driven frameworks to analyze healthcare utilization trends and predict physiological disorders using time-series and spectral analyses.
  • Enhance emotion and disorder recognition by applying graph-based models on culturally specific fMRI and EEG datasets.
  • Optimize predictive models for diabetes risk assessment using advanced feature selection techniques such as Cheetah, Polar Bear, and Royal Animal Optimization, supporting scalable, community-level health interventions.

Innovations / Outcomes
A key innovation is the development of the first culturally specific fMRI dataset (DOI: 10.18112/openneuro.ds005700.v1.0.2) for emotion recognition in the Indian population. DenseGCN and GCNN frameworks achieved high accuracies in autism and emotion detection using EEG and fMRI data, revealing brain-region-specific dynamics. The introduction of advanced optimization methods significantly improved diabetes diagnosis performance. The integration of Explainable AI techniques enhanced model transparency. These innovations collectively offer scalable, culturally adaptive AI healthcare tools with strong clinical and public health applications.
