Inspiration

So, the inspiration for this project came from the general problem of people where citizens have to spend a lot of their money in getting their early diagnostics even if it is a basic health checkup. So if there could be a solution or a technology where people can upload their lab reports and the app with the help of AI could predict the very basic stages of a disease then it would be easy for the users to decide whether and when to go to a doctor.

What it does

AlMind is basically an idea of an App, that accepts brain CT Scans as an image file of users and processes the scan around various parameters like cerebellum size, medulla orientation, etc to find whether a person is normal or suffering from MCI (Mild Cognitive Impairment) which can be stated as the early stage of brain demented or else the person has developed Alzheimer's Disease.

How I built it

I have used Python with libraries like TensorFlow, Open CV, etc to build the ML model. I have used Fast API to create APIs. To build the app I used React Native to design the very basic layout of this app.

Challenges I ran into

Machine Learning was a very new set of learning for me. I have never used Python for building models before. And deploying Machine Learning Model to Cloud was a very difficult job for me.

Along with this, I had no experience in building APIs in Python, I had to learn everything from scratch to make this model.

Accomplishments that I am proud of

I am very happy that I could think of a real-world problem and try my own idea to solve it.

More than this I got a whole new set of technologies in building this app, like Tensorflow, Gradio, FastAPI, etc. Learning something new is always fun and challenging at the same time. Therefore I am proud that I could finally make an app that can address a real work problem.

What's next for Project AlMind

I plan to train this model to a whole new level by providing a larger dataset. This will also provide more accurate data about which stage of cognitive impairment is the person suffering from.

I have also planned to add more disease prediction models in this app so that it can analyze more such scans such as MRIs, X-rays, etc to detect problems like tumors, cist, fractures including which types of fractures, etc. Basically, I plan to make use of technology as much as possible in the medical field making people's life easier.
