Abstract

The rapid growth of mobile phones, automated speech recognizing personal assistants, and internet access among the elderly provides new opportunities for incorporating such technologies into clinical research and personalized medical care. Alzheimer’s disease is a good test case given the need for early detection, the high rate of clinical trial failures, the need to more efficiently recruit patients for trials, and the need for sensitive and ecologically valid trial outcomes.

  • Other multimodal AI/ML strategies that attempt to directly fuse heterogeneous input data are less modular and usually incompatible with the use of high-performing open-source single-data-type models produced by other organizations and researchers.

    “This departs from other multimodal AI/ML strategies that attempt to directly fuse heterogeneous input data, which makes these systems less modular and usually incompatible with the use of high-performing open-source single-data-type models produced by other organizations and researchers10,29.”

    From Integrated multimodal artificial intelligence framework for healthcare applications (2022) · cites this paper as [29]

    The sections on cloud-based analytic platforms and evidence gaps discuss siloed trial databases and limited interoperability of devices and platforms. They do not address whether directly fusing heterogeneous data makes multimodal AI/ML systems less modular or incompatible with open-source single-data-type models (searched for those terms and their paraphrases).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
