Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disease causing dementia and poses significant health risks to middle-aged and elderly people. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most widely used diagnostic method for AD. However, it is challenging to collect sufficient brain imaging data with high-quality annotations. Weakly supervised learning (WSL) is a machine learning technique aimed at learning effective feature representation from limited or low-quality annotations. In this paper, we propose a WSL-based deep learning (DL) framework (ADGNET) consisting of a backbone network with an attention mechanism and a task network for simultaneous image classification and image reconstruction to identify and classify AD using limited annotations. The ADGNET achieves excellent performance based on six evaluation metrics (Kappa, sensitivity, specificity, precision, accuracy, F1-score) on two brain MRI datasets (2D MRI and 3D MRI data) using fine-tuning with only 20% of the labels from both datasets. The ADGNET has an F1-score of 99.61% and sensitivity is 99.69%, outperforming two state-of-the-art models (ResNext WSL and SimCLR). The proposed method represents a potential WSL-based computer-aided diagnosis method for AD in clinical practice.

Alzheimer’s disease is the third most expensive disease, only after cancer and cardiopathy. It is also the fourth leading cause of death in the elderly after cardiopathy, cancer, and cerebral palsy. The disease lacks specific diagnostic criteria. At present, there is still no definitive and effective means for preclinical diagnosis and treatment. It is the only disease that cannot be prevented and cured among the world’s top ten fatal diseases. It has now been proposed as a global issue. Computer-aided diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is mostly based on images at this stage. This project uses multi-modality imaging MRI/PET combining with clinical scales and uses deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis to treat AD, improves the comprehensiveness and accuracy of diagnosis. The project uses Bayesian model and convolutional neural network to train experimental data. The experiment uses the improved existing network model, LeNet-5, to design and build a 10-layer convolutional neural network. The network uses a back-propagation algorithm based on a gradient descent strategy to achieve good diagnostic results. Through the calculation of sensitivity, specificity and accuracy, the test results were evaluated, good test results were obtained.
