OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire COGITA to accomplish?

• The goal of the project was to develop an AI algorithm for simplified tongue image analysis based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
• The algorithm detects specific tongue symptoms (coating, spots, scalloped edges, cracks, color) and assigns them to one of the 12 most common TCM syndromes.
• Optimize the CNN model to achieve at least 75% prediction accuracy during the PoC phase, with potential improvement to 99% in the final version.

How many teammates from COGITA were assigned to this project?

2-5 Employees

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

COGITA handled the development of an AI-based solution for tongue image analysis using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The scope included consulting with our TCM expert to define the symptoms and syndromes to be identified, collecting and preparing image data, image normalization and labeling, and splitting the dataset into training and testing sets. The team developed and trained both a basic CNN model for syndrome classification and a more advanced multi-step model for detecting specific tongue symptoms and assigning them to one of 12 common TCM syndromes. They also tested and optimized the models to improve prediction accuracy. The key deliverables included a functional Proof of Concept AI model, documented testing results and accuracy metrics, an optimized symptom-to-syndrome classification process, and initial preparation of the deployment environment on AWS.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The Proof of Concept achieved approximately 80–90% accuracy in predicting TCM syndromes, exceeding the initial target of at least 75%. We also measured the number of correctly classified images and the accuracy of detecting specific symptoms in different areas of the tongue. These results confirmed the technical feasibility of the solution and provided a strong foundation for further development and optimization.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

COGITA managed the project efficiently and maintained clear, regular communication throughout the collaboration. The team delivered the agreed work on time, responded quickly to our questions and feedback, and adapted well to evolving requirements. They were proactive, transparent, and flexible, which made the entire collaboration smooth and effective.

What was your primary form of communication with COGITA?

In-Person Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What impressed us most was COGITA’s ability to combine strong AI expertise with a practical and consultative approach. They quickly understood our highly specialized use case and successfully translated TCM expert knowledge into an effective AI solution. Their flexibility, technical expertise, and proactive approach made them a valuable partner throughout the project.

Are there any areas for improvement or something COGITA could have done differently?

Earlier access to a larger dataset would have helped accelerate model training and potentially improve prediction accuracy. Other than that, we were very satisfied with the collaboration and COGITA’s performance. We are extremely satisfied with our collaboration with COGITA. Their expertise, professionalism, commitment, and proactive approach exceeded our expectations. The team was highly responsive, flexible, and genuinely engaged in the success of the project from start to finish. COGITA proved to be an excellent technology partner, and we would highly recommend them to any company looking for a reliable and innovative AI development team. We would be very happy to work with them again in the future.
