Duke University Wins $15M Grant for AI Model
Reading
A group at Duke University got money. It is a fifteen million dollar grant for their AI project. The project uses AI to guess mental health in young people.
The Duke-PMA model looks at things that affect mental health. It helps find who might get sick in one year. The model can also find what makes the predictions happen, and this helps find good ways to prevent problems.
Jonathan Posner said treatment usually waits until someone is sick. This model changes things to help before problems start. The model was right 84% of the time when finding at-risk kids aged 10-15.
The model uses simple things like questionnaires, not hard tests. This makes it easy to use everywhere. The model can also use things doctors can change, like sleep or family issues.
The project will now study 2,000 young people in rural areas. These are in North Carolina, Minnesota, and North Dakota. The team wants to help places where it's hard to get mental health care.
