ABSTRACTDeep learning frameworks for disease classification using neuroimaging and non-imaging information require the capability of capturing individual features as well as associative information among subjects. Graphs represent the interactions among nodes, which contain the individual features, through the edges in order to incorporate the inter-relatedness among heterogeneous data. Previous graph-based approaches for disease classification have focused on the similarities among subjects by establishing customized functions or solely based on imaging features. The purpose of this paper is to propose a novel graph-based deep learning architecture for classifying Alzheimer’s disease (AD) by combining the resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging and demographic measures without defining any study-specific function. We used the neuroimaging data from the ADNI and OASIS databases to test the robustness of our proposed model. We combined imaging-based and non-imaging information of individuals by categorizing them into distinctive nodes to construct a subject–demographic bipartite graph. The approximate personalized propagation of neural predictions, a recently developed graph neural network model, was used to classify the AD continuum from cognitively unimpaired individuals. The results showed that our model successfully captures the heterogeneous relations among subjects and improves the quality of classification when compared with other classical and deep learning models, thus outperforming the other models.

A growing body of evidence currently proposes that deep learning approaches can serve as an essential cornerstone for the diagnosis and prediction of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In light of the latest advancements in neuroimaging and genomics, numerous deep learning models are being exploited to distinguish AD from normal controls and/or to distinguish AD from mild cognitive impairment in recent research studies. In this review, we focus on the latest developments for AD prediction using deep learning techniques in cooperation with the principles of neuroimaging and genomics. First, we narrate various investigations that make use of deep learning algorithms to establish AD prediction using genomics or neuroimaging data. Particularly, we delineate relevant integrative neuroimaging genomics investigations that leverage deep learning methods to forecast AD on the basis of incorporating both neuroimaging and genomics data. Moreover, we outline the limitations as regards to the recent AD investigations of deep learning with neuroimaging and genomics. Finally, we depict a discussion of challenges and directions for future research. The main novelty of this work is that we summarize the major points of these investigations and scrutinize the similarities and differences among these investigations.

Effective and accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), as well as early-stage detection, has gained more and more attention in recent years. For AD classification, we propose a new hybrid method for early detection of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) using Polar Harmonic Transforms (PHT) and Self-adaptive Differential Evolution Wavelet Neural Network (SaDE-WNN). The orthogonal moments are used for feature extraction from the grey matter tissues of structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data. Irrelevant features are removed by the feature selection process through evaluating the in-class and among-class variance. In recent years, WNNs have gained attention in classification tasks; however, they suffer from the problem of initial parameter tuning, parameter setting. We proposed a WNN with the self-adaptation technique for controlling the Differential Evolution (DE) parameters, i.e., the mutation scale factor (F) and the cross-over rate (CR). Experimental results on the Alzheimer’s disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database indicate that the proposed method yields the best overall classification results between AD and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) (93.7% accuracy, 86.0% sensitivity, 98.0% specificity, and 0.97 area under the curve (AUC)), MCI and healthy control (HC) (92.9% accuracy, 95.2% sensitivity, 88.9% specificity, and 0.98 AUC), and AD and HC (94.4% accuracy, 88.7% sensitivity, 98.9% specificity and 0.99 AUC).
