The University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGA Research Foundation) was awarded a $407,700 Project Grant from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Medical Library Assistance (CFDA 93.879) federal grant program. The grant, titled "AI-MEDWISE: DEVELOPING AND VALIDATING AN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SOLUTION FOR EFFECTIVE VIDEO-BASED MONITORING OF MEDICATION ADHERENCE", aims to develop and validate a machine learning model to enhance the efficiency of video-based medication adherence monitoring. The project will leverage a large dataset of ~20,000 medication intake videos collected from patients with tuberculosis to train the AI model to automatically detect fine-grained patient behaviors related to medication adherence. The results of this 2-year project are expected to provide a robust AI-based solution that can accelerate the adoption of video-based medication monitoring and be adapted for chronic disease management.
