Synopsis

Between 35-40% of very preterm infants (≤32 weeks’ gestational age) develop cognitive deficits, thereby increasing their risk for poor educational, health, and social outcomes. Timely and accurate identification of infants at risk soon after birth is desirable for early intervention allocation. We proposed a novel Ontology-guided Attribute Partitioning Ensemble Learning (OAP-EL) model using quantitative structural MRI data obtained soon after birth to predict cognitive deficits at 2 years corrected age in very preterm infants.
