Neurogenic bladder refers to a stroke patient among patients diagnosed with abnormal bladder storage function through detrusor hyperreflexia in urodynamic test in which bladder hyperreflexia occurs due to nerve damage. Exist studies [1,2] have reported that stroke is affecting symptoms or disease expression of neurogenic bladder. There are some of these patterns, of which the pattern for facial parsy can be easily identified. Asymmetry criteria for the face are mainly important, and fine detection of this is essential to prevent stroke. This paper developed an early stroke prediction system equipped with a highdefinition 4K camera for fine detection of facial parsy symptoms in stroke patients. The use of the camera is for the purpose of photographing a patient’s face image, and the initial symptoms of stroke are analyzed through machine learning-based recognition [3-9] of the collected face image.

Wearable devices are developing into a companion product that can be compared to smartphones at a time when smartphones are recently activated and the Internet of things is connected and information is exchanged from the Internet of Things. Various wearable medical devices are also developing, and optical diagnostic devices that provide high resolution can be miniaturized and have the advantage of high portability and immediate diagnosis, so their market share is gradually increasing. In particular, since an optical diagnostic device using a camera can perform artificial intelligence (AI) analysis using only photographic images, remote treatment and analysis are possible. Optical diagnostics have a disadvantage in that they have lower detection accuracy than blood and laser, but with the recent development of high-speed cameras and resolutions, they can have a level of examination accuracy similar to that of actual examinations with the naked eye. In addition, with the development of the network, large-capacity image processing of tens of thousands of images can be sent to the central server to receive the examination results within a short period of time. With such technological support, the need for developing an AI image analysis system that can be applied to the treatment of neurological diseases in the elderly is increasing.

From the heavy system of the existing inspection camera, we developed a 4K inspection camera that is a portable, high-performance dedicated camera and provides ultra-high-resolution images that can ensure the stability and accuracy of inspection. The existing stroke recognition studies [10-12], there were issues such as restrictions on image information, so in the case of this proposal, the focus was on supplementing data. While providing a variety of light sources, it also provides various image format conversion technologies required for diagnosis. In addition, since it is intended for the elderly, it is possible to install AI analysis software that can accurately diagnose the early stage of stroke in daily life.

The method proposed in this paper developed a learning-based deep learning analysis technology that outputs the initial stage of stroke after acquiring a high-definition digital image and then deep learning face analysis. An AI auxiliary diagnostic software was developed to predict and diagnose the early stages of stroke by analyzing eye shape, facial wrinkles, and muscle abnormalities in the area of the mouth in facial images when stroke symptoms are expressed. The proposed method was to add and apply an AI model to the previously developed elderly urination management system [13] for neurogenic bladder prevention. Through this, an integrated system capable of total-care of patients was established. (Fig. 1) represent to the concept of system integration flow.

The experimental test environment proposed in this paper is as follows. It is software that analyzes images obtained from facial and arm motion images and displays suspicion of stroke based on learning (Object) with AI. It can be used as a reference index for stroke diagnosis by supporting the function of detecting and capturing objects in the acquired facial and arm motion images among the analyzed result values. Take a still cut by selecting front photos, face landmarks, eyebrows and eyes, mouth corners, and lip frames among the video frames.

In the experimental process, one of the precursor symptoms of stroke patients is that the left and right symmetry of the face is not matched due to paralysis of one face. In order to distinguish between patients and the general public from the input image using these features, the difference must be learned by extracting features from the facial databases of the 2 groups. To this end, distance learning and feature point learning were used in 2 methods. Fig. 4 shows the detected facial main feature points [22,23].

In addition, first of all, the facial area and 69 landmarks are detected in stroke patients and ordinary daily faces. Angle and slope must be detected to calculate the degree of asymmetry by calculating the distance between features in the face area and comparing left and right differences. Since the existing database has a different face area size and its slope, it must undergo a preprocessing process to normalize the size and angle of the detected face. Then, in order to obtain the rotation angle, the left-hand effect values of the left-end and right-end landmarks are stored as rotation angles. In order to align the images using this rotation angle, the affine transformation matrix is stored. After extracting the landmark from the rotated image by applying the angle, distance values that can find features for left and right symmetry analysis are calculated.

In order to extract the calculated distance values as meaningful data, the left and right distances are divided and compared to store larger values, and the values calculated such as slope, angle, and ratio of eyebrows and lips are also extracted. The extracted 27 data are normalized, labeled, and then learned with the CNN model. Through the convolution 2-dimensional layer of the landmark image learning model Keras, the model directly finds the feature points of the image. For image preprocessing, the face area and landmarks are extracted and a binary image of size 500×500 is generated by dotting the coordinates. This image is converted into a gray scale image of size 100×100 to learn from the model. Thereafter, the binary image is arranged so that the convolution layer can learn, and a label suitable for each image is assigned. And we learned using 605 stroke patient data and 725 general public data. Fig. 5 shows the learning data results of the distance learning model.

As a result of learning data analysis, train accuracy averaged 86% and validation accuracy averaged 83%. In addition, the accuracy of the control group and the patient group was also close to 80%. Accuracy and loss were recorded according to the number of epochs, and similar performance was derived overall for learning data. The results are shown in Tables 1, 2.

And we learned using 496 stroke patient data and 678 general public data, a total of 1,174 data. The results can be confirmed in Fig. 6, and similarly, the loss value and account value according to epoch were recorded. As the epoch increased, the loss decreased, and the accuracy increased, resulting in an average of 97% for train accuracy and an average of 86% for validation accuracy. Specifically, the patient data classification accuracy was 88%, and the control group was 87%, which can be found in Tables 3, 4. In the end, it was found that using AI for these stroke diagnoses and making them quickly and accurately had a positive effect indirectly, if not directly, on the neurogenic bladder. And Table 5 represents the configuration items of the system.

In this paper, we developed an AI stroke early-stage analysis software that can alert the early stage of stroke through analysis of facial muscle abnormalities for the elderly neurogenic bladder prevention. This is to support neurogenic bladder prevention by adding stroke diagnostic technology, a proposed method, to the previously developed urination patient management system. The system is linked and integrated with the existing urine management integrated system to support patient urine management with a total-care concept. By adding the stroke diagnosis function, it was possible to upgrade the function of monitoring existing urination activities by supporting the prediction/prevention field of urination management.

AI stroke early-stage diagnostic system as a wellness personal medical service plan and prevent cases of missing golden time when existing stroke occurs. In order to secure and facilitate distribution of this, it was developed in the form of AI analysis software so that it can be mounted on various hardware products. It also aims to provide a service that allows users to receive images taken from personal mobile phones in a cloud environment in a 5G mobile communication environment and receive analysis results in seconds through a large-capacity analysis server. In addition, in an environment where a network environment is not provided, we intend to provide services through deep learning analysis through a portable 4K camera.

The method proposed in this paper developed a learning-based deep learning analysis technology that outputs the initial stage of stroke after acquiring a high-definition digital image and then deep learning face analysis. The applied AI model was applied as a multimodal deep learning concept. We developed an AI stroke early-stage analysis software that can alert the early stage of stroke with 86% hit performance through analysis of facial muscle abnormalities in the elderly. This result shows the validation result of the landmark image learning model based on the distance learning model.

Finally, it was developed in the form of AI analysis software so that it can be mounted on various hardware products. It was found that using AI to make stroke diagnosis quickly and accurately affects indirectly, if not directly, neurogenic bladder. It was confirmed that such a total-care system could also enable early prediction of neurogenic bladder in the future.
