Perm National Research Polytechnic University Researchers Release New Study Findings on Vestibular Neuronitis [Methods for Detecting the Patient's Pupils' Coordinates and Head Rotation Angle for the Video Head Impulse Test (vHIT), Applicable for...].

Researchers from Perm National Research Polytechnic University in Russia have released a new study on vestibular neuronitis, a condition that causes dizziness. The study focuses on the differentiation between vestibular neuritis and stroke, which is primarily done through clinical examination. The researchers aim to develop accurate methods for detecting the position of pupils and head rotation angle, which are important for the video head impulse test (vHIT). They found that deep learning, geometric transformations, decision trees, and RASNAC are the most relevant approaches for pupil localization. The study may contribute to the development of a high-accuracy system for vHIT using smartphones or home computers. [Extracted from the article]
