Artificial Intelligence-based MRI Images for Brain in Prediction of Alzheimer's Disease

Abstract

The study aimed to explore the accuracy and stability of Deep metric learning (DML) algorithm in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) examination of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) patients. In this study, MRI data of patients obtained were from Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database (A total of 180 AD cases, 88 women, 92 men; 188 samples in healthy conditions (HC), including 90 females and 98 males. 210 samples of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), 104 females and 106 males). On the basis of deep learning, an early AD diagnosis system was constructed using CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) and DML algorithms. Then, the system was used to classify AD, HC, and MCI, and the two algorithms were compared for the accuracy and stability of in classification of MRI images. It was found that in the classification of AD and HC, the classification accuracy and sensitivity of the deep measurement learning model are both 0.83, superior to the CNN model; in terms of specificity, the classification specificity of the DML model was 0.82, slightly lower than that of the CNN model; and that in the classification of MCI and HC, the classification accuracy and sensitivity of the DML model was 0.65, superior to the CNN model; and in terms of specificity, the classification specificity of the DML model was 0.66, slightly lower than that of the CNN model. It suggested that the DML model demonstrated better classification effects on early AD patients. The loss curve analysis results showed that, for classification of AD and HC or MCI and HC, the DML algorithm can improve the convergence speed of the AD early prediction model. Therefore, the DML algorithm can significantly improve the clarity and quality of MRI images, elevate the classification accuracy and stability of early AD patients, and accelerate the convergence of the model, providing a new way for early prediction of AD.

Jizz in birdwatching activity and clinical practice: how it works and why?

“…It's worth noting that contemporary research with Artificial Intelligence (AI) try to establish tools that can be useful in diagnostics based on a model of clinical intuition. For example Bi et all [29] on the basis of deep learning constructed an early diagnosis system for Alzheimer Disease using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and deep metric learning (DML) algorithms.…”

End-to-End Deep Learning Architectures Using 3D Neuroimaging Biomarkers for Early Alzheimer’s Diagnosis

“…CNNs are gaining prominence as a result of their significant advantages in medical image classification applications [103]. In 2D CNN [35,[37][38][39][40][41][42]44,45,49,63,65] approaches for classifying the different stages of AD, where the 3D MR images are evaluated slice by slice, the anatomical context in directions orthogonal to the 2D plane is completely ignored. While using 3D data as a complete input may improve accuracy [104], the computational complexity and memory cost increase as the number of factors grows.…”

A Novel Coupling Model of Physiological Degradation and Emotional State for Prediction of Alzheimer’s Disease Progression

“…Therefore, for effective disease management, it is crucial to accurately assess and predict AD progression. In recent studies, various clinical data were used to analyze AD progression, containing imaging [ 2 , 3 , 4 ], generic [ 5 , 6 ], clinical, and cognitive data [ 7 , 8 ]. Due to the complexity of AD pathogenesis, the challenge lies in delineating the relationships among various types of clinical data.…”
