Alzheimer Disease Detection Techniques and Methods: A Review

Brain pathological changes linked with Alzheimer's disease (AD) can be measured with Neuroimaging. In the past few years, these measures are rapidly integrated into the signatures of Alzheimer disease (AD) with the help of classification frameworks which are offering tools for diagnosis and prognosis. Here is the review study of Alzheimer's disease based on Neuroimaging and cognitive impairment classification. This work is a systematic review for the published work in the field of AD especially the computer-aided diagnosis. The imaging modalities include 1) Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) 2) Functional MRI (fMRI) 3) Diffusion tensor imaging 4) Positron emission tomography (PET) and 5) amyloid-PET. The study revealed that the classification criterion based on the features shows promising results to diagnose the disease and helps in clinical progression. The most widely used machine learning classifiers for AD diagnosis include Support Vector Machine, Bayesian Classifiers, Linear Discriminant Analysis, and K-Nearest Neighbor along with Deep learning. The study revealed that the deep learning techniques and support vector machine give higher accuracies in the identification of Alzheimer’s disease. The possible challenges along with future directions are also discussed in the paper

Regression and Classification of Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnosis Using NMF-TDNet Features From 3D Brain MR Image

Because of headways in deep learning and clinical imaging innovation, a few specialists are presently utilizing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to extricate profound level properties from clinical pictures to all the more exactly classify Alzheimer's disease (AD) and expect clinical scores. A limited scale profound learning network called PCANet utilizes principal component analysis (PCA) to make multi-facet channel banks for the incorporated learning of information. Blockwise histograms are made after binarization to get picture ascribes. PCANet is less versatile than different frameworks since the multi-facet channel banks are made involving test information and the produced highlights have aspects during the many thousands or even many thousands. To conquer these issues, we present in this study a PCANet-based, information free organization called the nonnegative matrix factorization tensor decomposition network (NMF-TDNet). To deliver the last picture highlights, we first form higher-request tensors and utilize tensor decomposition (TD) to achieve information dimensionality decrease. Specifically, we foster staggered channel banks for test getting the hang of utilizing nonnegative matrix factorization(NMF) as opposed to PCA. These properties serve as input to the support vector machine (SVM) that our technique employs to diagnose AD, forecast clinical score, and categorise AD

Gaussian Mixture Models and Model Selection for [18F] Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography Classification in Alzheimer’s Disease

We present a method to discover discriminative brain metabolism patterns in [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) scans, facilitating the clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. In the work, the term “pattern” stands for a certain brain region that characterizes a target group of patients and can be used for a classification as well as interpretation purposes. Thus, it can be understood as a so-called “region of interest (ROI)”. In the literature, an ROI is often found by a given brain atlas that defines a number of brain regions, which corresponds to an anatomical approach. The present work introduces a semi-data-driven approach that is based on learning the characteristics of the given data, given some prior anatomical knowledge. A Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) and model selection are combined to return a clustering of voxels that may serve for the definition of ROIs. Experiments on both an in-house dataset and data of the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) suggest that the proposed approach arrives at a better diagnosis than a merely anatomical approach or conventional statistical hypothesis testing

Alzheimer's Disease: A Survey

Alzheimer's Diseases (AD) is one of the type of dementia. This is one of the harmful disease which can lead to death and yet there is no treatment. There is no current technique which is 100% accurate for the treatment of this disease. In recent years, Neuroimaging combined with machine learning techniques have been used for detection of Alzheimer's disease. Based on our survey we came across many methods like Convolution Neural Network (CNN) where in each brain area is been split into small three dimensional patches which acts as input samples for CNN. The other method used was Deep Neural Networks (DNN) where the brain MRI images are segmented to extract the brain chambers and then features are extracted from the segmented area. There are many such methods which can be used for detection of Alzheimer’s Disease

Although its triggers are still not clear, they may be due to a combination of different types of biomarkers measured through medical imaging, metabolomics, proteomics or genetics, among others. In this context, we have proposed a Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system that combines structural and functional imaging data from subjects in Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative dataset by means of an Ensemble Learning methodology trained to identify and penalize input sources with low classification rates and/or high-variability. This proposal improves results published in recent years and provides an accurate solution not only from the point of view of image preprocessing (including a comparison between different intensity preservation techniques), but also in terms of dimensionality reduction methods (Isomap). In addition, we have also introduced a bagging classification schema for scenarios with unbalanced data.As shown by our results, the CAD proposal is able to detect PD with 96.48% of balanced accuracy, and opens up the possibility of combining any number of input data sources relevant for PD.FEDER/Junta deAndalucia-Consejeria de Transformacion Economica, Industria, Conocimiento y Universidades/Proyecto B-TIC-586-UGR20MCIN/AEI P20-00525FEDER \Una manerade hacer Europa RYC2021-030875-IJunta de AndaluciaEuropean Union (EU) Spanish Government RTI2018-098913-B100, CV20-45250, A-TIC-080-UGR18European Union (EU)Juan de la Cierva FormacionNext Generation EU Fund through a Margarita Salas GrantMinisterio de Universidades FPU18/0490

Progression Modeling of Cognitive Disease Using Temporal Data Mining: Research Landscape, Gaps and Solution Design

Dementia is a cognitive disorder whose diagnosis and progression monitoring is very difficult due to a very slow onset and progression. It is difficult to detect whether cognitive decline is due to ageing process or due to some form of dementia as MRI scans of the brain cannot reliably differentiate between ageing related volume loss and pathological changes. Laboratory tests on blood or CSF samples have also not proved very useful. Alzheimer�s disease (AD) is recognized as the most common cause of dementia. Development of sensitive and reliable tool for evaluation in terms of early diagnosis and progression monitoring of AD is required. Since there is an absence of specific markers for predicting AD progression, there is a need to learn more about specific attributes and their temporal relationships that lead to this disease and determine progression from mild cognitive impairment to full blown AD. Various stages of disease and transitions from one stage to the have be modelled based on longitudinal patient data. This paper provides a critical review of the methods to understand disease progression modelling and determine factors leading to progression of AD from initial to final stages. Then the design of a machine learning based solution is proposed to handle the gaps in current research
