1. A method of building a classifier for multimodal assessment of a subject'"'"'s neurological condition, comprising the steps of:
- providing a signal processing device operatively connected to a memory device storing results of two or more different assessments performed on a plurality of individuals in the presence or absence of brain abnormalities, the signal processing device comprising a processor configured to perform the steps of;
extracting quantitative features from the results of the two or more different assessments;
storing the extracted features in a pool of selectable features;
selecting a subset of features from the pool of selectable features to construct the classifier; and
determining classification accuracy of the classifier by using it to classify data records having a priori classification information.

Abstract
A method of building classifiers for multimodal neurological assessment is described. The method comprises the steps of extracting quantitative features from a plurality of physiological and neurocognitive assessments, and selecting a subset of features from the extracted pool of features to construct multimodal classifiers. A device for performing point-of-care multimodal neurological assessment is also described.

18. A method of building a classifier for classification of individual data into one of two or more categories of neurological condition, the method comprising the steps of:
-
providing a processor configured to build a classifier; providing a memory device operatively coupled to the processor, the memory device storing a population reference database comprising a pool of quantitative features extracted from the results of physiological and neurocognitive assessments performed on a plurality of individuals in the presence or absence of brain abnormalities; selecting a plurality of brain electrical signal features from the pool of quantitative features in the population reference database; selecting another plurality of quantitative features derived from one or more additional assessments performed on the plurality of individuals in the population reference database; constructing a classifier using the selected quantitative features; evaluating performance of the classifier using pre-labeled data records stored in the memory device, wherein the pre-labeled data records are assigned a priori to one of the two or more categories. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
