1.1 Empower national infrastructure

Based on brain-computer interface technology and feature selection algorithms, a digital personnel safety supervision management system is established to monitor and warn the brain states such as concentration and fatigue of construction personnel for key national projects.

The personnel safety supervision system developed in cooperation with Professor Wu Xia can monitor the mental status of construction workers in real time and effectively realize safety early warning. It has provided nearly 400 risk reports, issued nearly 2,000 risk warnings and alarm messages, and successfully captured more than 30,000 risk hidden danger data.

1.2 Empower healthcare

Collaborating with multiple hospitals including Tiantan Hospital and Xuanwu Hospital, quickly extracting functional neurology biomarkers, empowering multiple auxiliary diagnosis platforms, and currently serving as an auxiliary diagnostic tool for nearly ten thousand patients' diseases.

Our hospital, in collaboration with Professor Wu Xia's team, has jointly developed the "Neuroimaging Data-Based Depression Assisted Diagnosis Platform," which has provided assistance in early diagnosis and treatment for over 2,000 patients.

1.3 Empower national defense

The laboratory undertakes projects for units such as the Commission of Science and Technology of the Central Military Commission, applies the brain function operation mechanism to the selection and assessment of special position talents, and has served thousands of pilots and firefighters. The system has served thousands of firefighters in many provinces of our country, with an accuracy rate of cognitive state recognition ≥90% and an accuracy rate of state warning ≥99%.

2.2 Cross-Site Online Disease Diagnosis Research

Insufficient data from a single site limits the performance of diagnostic models, the cost of collecting neuroimaging data is high, and it is difficult to obtain batch data in online diagnostic scenarios; the existing cross-site disease diagnosis covers various differences such as equipment and environment, different scanning equipment, protocols, and population distribution, resulting in significant differences in the distribution of cross-site data; existing methods require obtaining all data in the target domain, but in clinical diagnosis, most target samples arrive sequentially in an online form, and only a small number of target domain samples can be obtained in advance.

Through cross-site online disease diagnosis research, focusing on the cross-site online disease diagnosis scenario, and solving the problem of small sample size in the target domain.
