Building upon the Florey Dementia Index (FDI) methodology, it now encompasses a broader spectrum of neurological conditions. The system integrates multimodal data sources—including EEG, neuroimaging, biomarkers, and genetics—and employs machine learning models to deliver explainable, real-time diagnostic insights. A key feature of this framework is the incorporation of the **Generalized Neuro Biomarker Ontology Categorization (Neuromarker)**, which standardizes biomarker classification across all neurodegenerative diseases, facilitating cross-disease AI training. 2 2 3 -Neuro diagnoses develops a **tridimensional diagnostic framework**for **CNS diseases**, incorporating **AI-poweredannotation tools** to improve**interpretability,standardization, and clinical utility.**3 +**Neuromarker: Generalized Biomarker Ontology** 4 4 5 -This methodology integrates **multi-modal data**, including: 6 -**Genetic data** (whole-genome sequencing, polygenic risk scores). 7 -**Neuroimaging** (MRI, PET, EEG, MEG). 8 -**Neurophysiological data** (EEG-based biomarkers, sleep actigraphy). 9 -**CSF & Blood Biomarkers** (Amyloid-beta, Tau, Neurofilament Light). 5 +Neuromarker extends the Common Alzheimer’s Disease Research Ontology (CADRO) into a comprehensive biomarker categorization framework applicable to all neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs).
