AB119. Computer-aided facial recognition of Chinese individuals with 22q11.2 deletion-algorithm training using NIH atlas of human malformation syndromes from diverse population

摘要

Background22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is a common genetic disorder with an estimated frequency of 1/4,000. It is a multi-systemic disorder with high phenotypic variability. Our previous work showed substantial under-diagnosis of 22q11.2DS as 1 in 10 adult patients with conotruncal defects were found to have 22q11.2DS. The National Institute of Health (NIH) has created an atlas of human malformation syndrome from diverse populations to provide an easy tool to assist clinician in diagnosing the syndromic across various populations. In this study, we seek to determine whether training the computer-aided facial recognition technology using images from ethnicity-matched patients from the NIH Atlas can improve the detection performance of this technology.
