Professor Nikos Papanikolopoulos and his team were recently awarded $1.5 M from the National Science Foundation's Cyber-Enabled Discovery Program to study algorithms that will assist with the early diagnosis of children at risk of developing psychiatric disorders. The team's approach uses cameras to collect and analyze data regarding human movements.
The proposed work is a unique partnership between the College of Science and Engineering, Medical School, and the College of Education and Human Development at the University of Minnesota. Also included in the team are Guillermo Sapiro (Electrical and Computer Engineering), Kelvin Lim (Psychiatry), Vassilios Morellas (Computer Science and Engineering), Arindam Banerjee (Computer Science and Engineering), and Barbara Murphy (Institute of Child Development). The title of the award is "CDI-Type II: Computational Tools for Behavioral Analysis, Diagnosis, and Intervention of at Risk Children."
