Assessing ADHD treatment and Assisting the

Psychological Treatment
Motivation:-
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common
disorders of childhood, affecting 3–10% of school-age children. It is characterized by
age-inappropriate levels of inattention, impulsivity and overactivity.

In cognitive studies that have used careful control conditions, children with ADHD often perform poorly
across tasks measuring abilities such as reaction time, eye coordination, stimuli response and irregular eye
blinks while anticipating visual stimuli sustained attention.It usually begins in childhood and can persist into
adulthood.

FACT
Treatment can help, but this condition is incurable. The
treatment includes a rigorous series of medical tests and
analysis, and checking each step through..
PROPOSED SOLUTION
A set of four tasks which will help the
doctors in analyzing the improvement of
ADHD patients over a period of time.

➔ Reaction time counter

Variation in reaction timing of ADHD
patients is much more turbulent as
compared to that of a normal being.

➔ Variation in reaction time with

variation in number of stimuli
point
The reaction time to the number of
stimuli point produces a linear
regression for normal people which is
not true for ADHD patients.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
➔ Eye gaze direction estimator
given a series of path
ADHD patients show longer fixation
duration and more atypical eye
movements as compared to Control
children.

➔ Blink frequency counter

ADHD subjects fail to suppress eye
blinks anticipating visual stimuli but
recover with medication.
PROPOSED SOLUTION

The result of these four tasks are

visualized using proper plots, graphs

IMPLEMENTATION
The Web App starts at a login page. All further actions have been planned out as routes through
Flask. Each action has respective scripts associated with it, which in turn are reflected onto the
supported webpages.

The LogIn / Register routes help maintain the session while manipulating Mongo database. These
are Personally Identifiable Information and are doubly encrypted through Hashing and Salting
provided by BCrypt.

The scripts for each game simulate a child-friendly and soothing game onto the browser. Stats
relevant for further computation are extracted and analysed upon during the remainder through
background processes. All of the information processed upon in this while instantly perishes after
computing the analysed result for the process.

The games related to Computer Vision are analysed by OpenCV and then the relevant details of
EyeAspectRatio and Centroid Pupil Detection are done as per the 68-point face landmarks.
Further computations are used up in analysis of the Stats observed and Plotting Graphs relevant to
it, which are stored up securely in Azure as proper linked PDF files.
FUTURE SCOPE:-
● In future if the medical authorities coordinate with us by providing the result of
these four tests (leaving the patient’s personal information) along with the
ADHD level.

● Using this data we can actually create a k nearest neighbor model .

● The above model can be used to predict the level of ADHD in completely new set
of data. Thus the patients can sit at home and do the tests ad check their
improvement, and contact Doctors in case of Unexpected results.
