    Nous avons utilisĂ© l'imagerie TEP avec les traceurs F18-FDG et AV45 en conjonction avec les mĂ©thodes de classification du domaine du "Machine Learning". Les images ont Ă©tĂ© acquises en mode dynamique, une image toutes les 5 minutes. Les donnĂ©es ont Ă©tĂ© transformĂ©es par Analyse en Composantes Principales et Analyse en Composantes IndĂ©pendantes. Les images proviennent de trois sources diffĂ©rentes: la base de donnĂ©es ADNI (Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative) et deux protocoles rĂ©alisĂ©s au sein du centre TEP de l'hĂŽpital Purpan. Pour Ă©valuer la performance de la classification nous avons eu recours Ă  la mĂ©thode de validation croisĂ©e LOOCV (Leave One Out Cross Validation). Nous donnons une comparaison entre les deux mĂ©thodes de classification les plus utilisĂ©es, SVM (Support Vector Machine) et les rĂ©seaux de neurones artificiels (ANN). La combinaison donnant le meilleur taux de classification semble ĂȘtre SVM et le traceur AV45. Cependant les confusions les plus importantes sont entre les patients MCI et les sujets normaux. Les patients Alzheimer se distinguent relativement mieux puisqu'ils sont retrouvĂ©s souvent Ă  plus de 90%. Nous avons Ă©valuĂ© la gĂ©nĂ©ralisation de telles mĂ©thodes de classification en rĂ©alisant l'apprentissage sur un ensemble de donnĂ©es et la classification sur un autre ensemble. Nous avons pu atteindre une spĂ©cificitĂ© de 100% et une sensibilitĂ© supĂ©rieure Ă  81%. La mĂ©thode SVM semble avoir une meilleure sensibilitĂ© que les rĂ©seaux de neurones. L'intĂ©rĂȘt d'un tel travail est de pouvoir aider Ă  terme au diagnostic de la maladie d'Alzheimer.We used PET imaging with tracers F18-FDG and AV45 in conjunction with the classification methods in the field of "Machine Learning". PET images were acquired in dynamic mode, an image every 5 minutes.The images used come from three different sources: the database ADNI (Alzheimer's Disease Neuro-Imaging Initiative, University of California Los Angeles) and two protocols performed in the PET center of the Purpan Hospital. The classification was applied after processing dynamic images by Principal Component Analysis and Independent Component Analysis. The data were separated into training set and test set. To evaluate the performance of the classification we used the method of cross-validation LOOCV (Leave One Out Cross Validation). We give a comparison between the two most widely used classification methods, SVM (Support Vector Machine) and artificial neural networks (ANN) for both tracers. The combination giving the best classification rate seems to be SVM and AV45 tracer. However the most important confusion is found between MCI patients and normal subjects. Alzheimer's patients differ somewhat better since they are often found in more than 90%. We evaluated the generalization of our methods by making learning from set of data and classification on another set . We reached the specifity score of 100% and sensitivity score of more than 81%. SVM method showed a bettrer sensitivity than Artificial Neural Network method. The value of such work is to help the clinicians in diagnosing Alzheimer's disease
