In this paper, we studied the association between the change of structural brain volumes to the potential development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Using a simple abstraction technique, we converted regional cortical and subcortical volume…
Accurate and efficient classification of Alzheimer's disease (AD) severity from brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) remains a critical challenge, particularly when limited data and model interpretability are of concern. In this work, we…
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) is commonly utilized to study human brain activity, including abnormal functional properties related to neurodegenerative diseases. This study aims to investigate the differences in the…
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is an irreversible neurodegenerative disorder affecting millions of individuals today. The prognosis of the disease solely depends on treating symptoms as they arise and proper caregiving, as there are no current…
In Alzheimer's disease (AD), the progressive atrophy leads to aberrant network reconfigurations both at structural and functional levels. In such network reorganization, the core and peripheral nodes appear to be crucial for the prediction…
Cognitive decline is a sign of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and there is evidence that tracking a person's eye movement, using eye tracking devices, can be used for the automatic identification of early signs of cognitive decline. However,…
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects cognitive functions such as memory, thinking, and behavior. In this disease, there is a critical phase, mild cognitive impairment, that is really…
Alzheimer's disease detection requires expensive neuroimaging or invasive procedures, limiting accessibility. This study explores whether deep learning can enable non-invasive Alzheimer's disease detection through handwriting analysis.…
Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) represent a growing healthcare crisis affecting over 6 million Americans. While genetic factors play a crucial role, emerging research reveals that social determinants of health (SDOH)…
Current neuroimaging techniques provide paths to investigate the structure and function of the brain in vivo and have made great advances in understanding Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the group-level analyses prevalently used for…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) emerges from a complex interplay of molecular, cellular, and network-level disturbances that are not easily captured by traditional reductionist frameworks. Conventional analyses of gene expression often rely on…
Representation learning on large-scale unstructured volumetric and surface meshes poses significant challenges in neuroimaging, especially when models must incorporate diverse vertex-level morphometric descriptors, such as cortical…
INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have applied normative modeling on a single neuroimaging modality to investigate Alzheimer Disease (AD) heterogeneity. We employed a deep learning-based multimodal normative framework to analyze…
Volume change measures derived from longitudinal MRI (e.g. hippocampal atrophy) are a well-studied biomarker of disease progression in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and are used in clinical trials to track the therapeutic efficacy of…
Research question: This study aims to find whether other neurostructural measurements could be added and combined with the state-of-the-art Alzheimer's imaging marker called MSSM to improve sensitivity to neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's…
A number of life threatening neuro-degenerative disorders had degraded the quality of life for the older generation in particular. Dementia is one such symptom which may lead to a severe condition called Alzheimer's disease if not detected…
The path signature is a means of feature generation that can encode nonlinear interactions in the data as well as the usual linear features. It can distinguish the ordering of time-sequenced changes: for example whether or not the…
We investigate combining imaging and shape features extracted from MRI for the clinically relevant tasks of brain age prediction and Alzheimer's disease classification. Our proposed model fuses ResNet-extracted image embeddings with shape…
Pre-symptomatic (or Preclinical) Alzheimer's Disease is defined by biomarker evidence of fibrillar amyloid beta pathology in the absence of clinical symptoms. Clinical trials in this early phase of disease are challenging due to the slow…
Alzheimer's Disease is the most common cause of dementia. Accurate diagnosis and prognosis of this disease are essential to design an appropriate treatment plan, increasing the life expectancy of the patient. Intense research has been…
