description In this work we focus on the problem of identifying drivers with neurocognitive impairment (NCI), specifically an NCI specific to people with HIV (PWH) called HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) directly from driving simulator data. Since NCI-screening is typically only effective for more progressed forms of HAND, there is a critical need to identify individuals that should be referred to specialists in order to mitigate potentially dangerous driving behaviors and improve their quality of life. Data collected from (n = 81) study participants that used the virtual driving test (VDT) platform were analyzed in order to predict which drivers had NCI. Of the (n = 62) PWH participants recruited, (n = 35) had HAND; of the remaining (n = 19) HIV negative participants, (n = 7) had non-HAND NCI (e.g., Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s, etc.). In three separate experiments, subsets of VDT data were first selected via Kruskal-Wallis feature ranking and then used as ensemble inputs to classify whether or not drivers had NCI. Within the PWH population, HAND could be classified with 69.4% accuracy and a risk ratio of 2.09 (95% CI 1.52, 2.65); within the HIV negative population, non-HAND NCI could be classified with 84.2% accuracy, risk ratio of 8.25 (6.34, 10.16); and within the combined population, NCI (regardless of causation) could be classified with 63.0% accuracy, risk ratio of 1.67 (1.22, 2.11).
