Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease affecting millions of individuals across the globe. As the prevalence of this disease continues to rise, early diagnosis is crucial to improve clinical outcomes. Neural networks,…
About 5-8% of individuals over the age of 60 have dementia. With our ever-aging population this number is likely to increase, making dementia one of the most important threats to public health in the 21st century. Given the phenotypic…
We exploit altered patterns in brain functional connectivity as features for automatic discriminative analysis of neuropsychiatric patients. Deep learning methods have been introduced to functional network classification only very recently…
Alzheimer's disease is a debilitating disorder marked by a decline in cognitive function. Timely identification of the disease is essential for the development of personalized treatment strategies that aim to mitigate its progression. The…
Multimodal neuroimaging provides complementary structural and functional insights into both human brain organization and disease-related dynamics. Recent studies demonstrate enhanced diagnostic sensitivity for Alzheimer's disease (AD)…
In brain connectomics, the cortical surface is parcellated into different regions of interest (ROIs) prior to statistical analysis. The brain connectome for each individual can then be represented as a graph, with the nodes corresponding to…
Alzheimers disease (AD) is a severe neurological brain disorder. It is not curable, but earlier detection can help improve symptoms in a great deal. The machine learning based approaches are popular and well motivated models for medical…
Brain function and connectivity is a pressing mystery in medicine related to many diseases. Neural connectomes have been studied as graphs with graph theory methods including topological methods. Work has started on hypergraph models and…
Alzheimer's is a brain disease that gets worse over time and affects memory, thinking, and behavior. Alzheimer's disease (AD) can be treated and managed if it is diagnosed early, which can slow the progression of symptoms and improve…
