Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The machine-learning head model (MLHM) to accelerate the calculation of brain strain and strain rate, which are the predictors for traumatic brain injury (TBI), but the model accuracy was found to decrease sharply when the training/test datasets were from different head impacts types (i.e., car crash, college football), which limits the applicability of MLHMs to different types of head impacts and sports. Particularly, small sizes of target dataset for specific impact types with tens of impacts may not be enough to train an accurate impact-type-specific MLHM.
