Parkinson’s Disease

What is Parkinson's Disease (PD)?

Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease

Tremor, Slowness of movement, Rigidity,
Poor balance

How is PD caused in theory

Substantia nigra

Dopamine

Current PD Treatment

Drugs – Various forms of Levodopa (L-dopa)

Advantage – effective for early PD patients, cheap

Disadvantage – kyskinesias, unpredictable on-off switching
Levodopa
and freezing, chemical side effects.

Surgical

Radio frequency Lesioning – non-reversible

Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) – blocks nerve traffic

DBS Treatment on PD
 What
is Deep Brain Stimulation?
 Electrode,
a connecting cable and
Neurostimulator
 Video
(Dana Centre)
Research Project
 What
is wrong with current DBS?

Large amount of battery usage

Continuous stimulation – overrides brain

Open-Loop

Side Effects?
 Create
an intelligent DBS system which
can predict PD tremor onset using
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs)

Aim is to accurately predict tremors and then
apply stimulation in order to stop them
occurring
Only stimulate when prediction indicates
Needs research into nature of stimulation –
frequency/magnitude/time prior for
effect/generality with different people
Doesn’t matter so much if false positive
predictions
Does matter if false negatives
More Comments
 Every
PD case is a little bit different
 Not everyone can benefit from
stimulation
 Probably not everyone will benefit from
our prediction + stimulation (subset)
 Doesn’t have to be neural network
 Hybrid methods probably best
 Neural net good for nonlinearities though
Future Research
 More
Tests on resting data – no false
calls
 Test on a broader range of patients to
assess general results with our current
MLP (male, female, age difference)
 Test on other problems
(Epilepsy/Tourette’s/Emotional)
 Apply feedback loop (MRC project)
Surprise
 Biggest
shock has been the prediction
time
 15/20 seconds seems typical
 But this means we know for sure what
will happen in the human brain 15/20
seconds before it happens
 How long could this time be?
 What else could we predict this way?
Other Points
 Developing
here an AI brain within the
human brain
 Use for other diseases – not just PD
 Could be used for emotional
changes/control
 Ethical concerns:
 What should predictor/stimulator be used
for in humans?
 What about responsibility/murders etc?
