Dyscalculia Detection Using Machine Learning

摘要

A great amount of research is going on in the detection of learning disabilities, but the detection of Dyscalculia remains a tedious and time-consuming task even today. Various tests are conducted to detect if the patient has Dyscalculia and each test has to be evaluated manually as the scores alone are not sufficient to determine it. In some cases, Curriculum-Based Tests [CB'Ps] or Wide Range Achievement Tests [WRAT] or both need to be conducted after analysis of the results of the Woodcock-Johnson Tests. As a collaborative project between the Department of Psychiatry B.Y.L. Nair Ch. Hospital and Department of Computer Engineering, Vivekanand Education Society's Institute of Technology a system is developed to help improve the detection of Dyscalculia. The Woodcock-Johnson Tests of Achievements are conducted by the doctors and the results of these tests determine the learning disability.
