Deep learning is quickly becoming the leading methodology for medical image analysis. Given a large medical archive, where each image is associated with a diagnosis, efficient pathology detectors or classifiers can be trained with virtually…

Using picture description speech for dementia detection has been studied for 30 years. Despite the long history, previous models focus on identifying the differences in speech patterns between healthy subjects and patients with dementia but…

Behavioural symptoms and urinary tract infections (UTI) are among the most common problems faced by people with dementia. One of the key challenges in the management of these conditions is early detection and timely intervention in order to…

Deep learning (DL) has been used in the automatic diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's Disease (AD) with brain imaging data. However, previous methods have not fully exploited the relation between brain image and…

Early detection of cognitive impairment is critical for timely diagnosis and intervention, yet infrequent clinical assessments often lack the sensitivity and temporal resolution to capture subtle cognitive declines in older adults. Passive…

Deep learning, a cutting-edge machine learning approach, outperforms traditional machine learning in identifying intricate structures in complex high-dimensional data, particularly in the domain of healthcare. This study focuses on…

Collecting and accessing a large amount of medical data is very time-consuming and laborious, not only because it is difficult to find specific patients but also because it is required to resolve the confidentiality of a patient's medical…

Dementia is a syndrome characterised by the decline of different cognitive abilities. Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most common dementia affecting cognitive domains such as memory and learning, perceptual-motion or executive function.…

Dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) is an advanced technique for capturing the dynamic changes of neural activities, and can be very useful in the studies of brain…

This paper explores deterioration in Alzheimers Disease using Machine Learning. Subjects were split into two datasets based on baseline diagnosis (Cognitively Normal, Mild Cognitive Impairment), with outcome of deterioration at final visit…

We classify very-mild to moderate dementia in patients (CDR ranging from 0 to 2) using a support vector machine classifier acting on dimensionally reduced feature set derived from MRI brain scans of the 416 subjects available in the…

Objective: We develop a deep learning framework based on the pre-trained Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) model using unstructured clinical notes from electronic health records (EHRs) to predict the risk of…

Projected to impact 1.6 million people in the UK by 2040 and costing {\pounds}25 billion annually, dementia presents a growing challenge to society. This study, a pioneering effort to predict the translational potential of dementia research…

\textbf{Background:} Machine learning models trained on electronic health records (EHRs) often degrade across healthcare systems due to distributional shift. A fundamental but underexplored factor is diagnostic signal decay: variability in…

There is a need for automatic diagnosis of certain diseases from medical images that could help medical practitioners for further assessment towards treating the illness. Alzheimers disease is a good example of a disease that is often…

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a severe brain disorder, destroying memories and brain functions. AD causes chronically, progressively, and irreversibly cognitive declination and brain damages. The reliable and effective evaluation of early…

Eye diseases are common in older Americans and can lead to decreased vision and blindness. Recent advancements in imaging technologies allow clinicians to capture high-quality images of the retinal blood vessels via Optical Coherence…

Background: Dementia, particularly Alzheimer's Disease (AD), is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder marked by cognitive decline. Early detection, especially at the Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) stage, is essential for timely…

Deep Learning (DL) requires a large amount of training data to provide quality outcomes. However, the field of medical imaging suffers from the lack of sufficient data for properly training DL models because medical images require manual…

Alzheimer's disease (AD) progresses through distinct stages, from early mild cognitive impairment (EMCI) to late mild cognitive impairment (LMCI) and eventually to AD. Accurate identification of these stages, especially distinguishing LMCI…
