Abstract

Disclosed are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for determining a digital marker. An embodiment operates by determining one or more oculometric parameters associated with an eye of a user using a video stream. The video stream comprises at least one image of a face of the user. The embodiment then determines a pupillary response function of brightness or a gaze response function by performing a deconvolution process based on at least the one or more oculometric parameters. The pupillary response function of brightness or the gaze response function is indicative of a response of the eye of the user to an external factor. The embodiment determines one or more digital markers of the user based on the pupillary response function of brightness or the gaze response function. The one or more digital markers are indicative of a neurological condition or a mental health condition of the user.

Claims (44)

1. A computer-implemented method for efficiently determining a digital marker indicative of a neurological condition or a mental health condition, comprising:

determining, using one or more processors, a one-dimensional direction of gaze based on one or more oculometric parameters associated with an eye of a user using a video stream, wherein the video stream comprises at least one image of a face of the user;

determining, by performing a deconvolution of a time function of at least the one-dimensional direction of gaze, a gaze response function, wherein the gaze response function is indicative of a response of the eye of the user to an external factor; and

determining one or more digital markers of the user based on the gaze response function, wherein the one or more digital markers are indicative of a neurological condition or a mental health condition of the user.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more oculometric parameters comprise one or more of an iris size, an iris translation, or an iris rotation; and wherein the method further comprises:

determining the one-dimensional direction of gaze based on the one or more of the iris size, the iris translation, or the iris rotation.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , further comprising:

displaying a stimulus on a display of a user device while simultaneously capturing the at least one image of the face of the user, wherein the stimulus corresponds to the external factor; and

wherein the determining the gaze response function comprises performing deconvolution on the one-dimensional direction of gaze and a target signal, wherein the target signal is based on the stimulus.
