Background: The total number of people with dementia is projected to reach 82 million in 2030 and 152 in 2050. Early and accurate identification of the underlying causes of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is of utmost importance. A large body of research has shown that imaging techniques are most promising technologies to improve subclinical and early diagnosis of dementia. Morphological changes, especially atrophy in various structures like cingulate gyri, caudate nucleus, hippocampus, frontotemporal lobe, etc., have been established as markers for AD. Being the largest white matter structure with a high demand of blood supply from several main arterial systems, anatomical alterations of the corpus callosum (CC) may serve as potential indication neurodegenerative disease. Objective: To detect mild and moderate AD using brain magnetic resonance image (MRI) processing and machine learning techniques. Methods: We have performed automatic detection and segmentation of the CC and calculate its morphological features to feed into a multivariate pattern analysis using support vector machine learning techniques. Results: Our results using large patients’ cohort show CC atrophy-based features are capable of distinguishing healthy and mild/moderate AD patients. Our classifiers obtain more than 90%sensitivity and specificity in differentiating demented patients from healthy cohorts and importantly, achieved more than 90%sensitivity and >  80%specificity in detecting mild AD patients. Conclusion: Results from this analysis are encouraging and advocate development of an image analysis software package to detect dementia from brain MRI using morphological alterations of the CC.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive disease that attacks the brain’s neurons and causes problems in memory, thinking, and reasoning skills. Personalized Medicine (PM) needs a better and more accurate understanding of the relationship between human genetic data and complex diseases like AD. The goal of PM is to tailor the treatment of a case person to his individual properties. PM requires the prediction of a person’s disease from genetic data, and its success depends on the accurate detection of genetic biomarkers. Single Nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are considered the most prevalent type of variation in the human genome. Epistasis has a biological relevance to complex diseases and has an important impact on PM. Detection of the most significant epistasis interactions associated with complex diseases is a big challenge. This paper reviews several machine learning techniques and algorithms to detect the most significant epistasis interactions in Alzheimer’s disease. We discuss many machine learning techniques that can be used for detecting SNPs’ combinations like Random Forests, Support Vector Machines, Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction, Neural Network, and Deep Learning. This review paper highlights the pros and cons of these techniques and explains how they can be applied in an efficient framework to apply knowledge discovery and data mining in AD disease.

Abstract Alzheimer's is the main reason for dementia, that affects frequently older adults. This disease is costly especially, in terms of treatment. In addition, Alzheimer's is one of the deaths causes in the old-age citizens. Early Alzheimer's detection helps medical staffs in this disease diagnosis, which will certainly decrease the risk of death. This made the early Alzheimer's disease detection a crucial problem in the healthcare industry. The objective of this research study is to introduce a computer-aided diagnosis system for Alzheimer's disease detection using machine learning techniques. We employed data from the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) and the Open Access Series of Imaging Studies (OASIS) brain datasets. Common supervised machine learning techniques have been applied for automatic Alzheimer’s disease detection such as: logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest, linear discriminant analysis, etc. The best accuracy values provided by the machine learning classifiers are 99.43% and 99.10% given by respectively, logistic regression and support vector machine using ADNI dataset, whereas for the OASIS dataset, we obtained 84.33% and 83.92% given by respectively logistic regression and random forest.


Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a gradual neuro cognitive disorder caused by the damage of brain cells over a certain period of time. One non-invasive and efficient technique to investigate AD is to use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Functional connectivity is a change in the functional connections between brain regions when an activity takes place. The correlation value gives the strength of functional connectivity. Pearson’s correlation method was used to calculate the correlation coefficient between two time series. Mutual information which denotes the information successfully transmitted through a channel was also considered. In this paper, these two measures are compared and their performance and suitability is assessed for fMRI connectivity modelling based on the classification accuracy. Machine learning techniques such as support vector machine (SVM) is employed for connectivity analysis and classification of Alzheimer’s from control population

AbstractThe purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to create a model for predicting the onset of peri-implantitis by using machine learning methods and to clarify interactions between risk indicators. This study evaluated 254 implants, 127 with and 127 without peri-implantitis, from among 1408 implants with at least 4 years in function. Demographic data and parameters known to be risk factors for the development of peri-implantitis were analyzed with three models: logistic regression, support vector machines, and random forests (RF). As the results, RF had the highest performance in predicting the onset of peri-implantitis (AUC: 0.71, accuracy: 0.70, precision: 0.72, recall: 0.66, and f1-score: 0.69). The factor that had the most influence on prediction was implant functional time, followed by oral hygiene. In addition, PCR of more than 50% to 60%, smoking more than 3 cigarettes/day, KMW less than 2 mm, and the presence of less than two occlusal supports tended to be associated with an increased risk of peri-implantitis. Moreover, these risk indicators were not independent and had complex effects on each other. The results of this study suggest that peri-implantitis onset was predicted in 70% of cases, by RF which allows consideration of nonlinear relational data with complex interactions.

Computers are now involved in many economic transactions and can capture data associated with these transactions, which can then be manipulated and analyzed. Conventional statistical and econometric techniques such as regression often work well, but there are issues unique to big datasets that may require different tools. First, the sheer size of the data involved may require more powerful data manipulation tools. Second, we may have more potential predictors than appropriate for estimation, so we need to do some kind of variable selection. Third, large datasets may allow for more flexible relationships than simple linear models. Machine learning techniques such as decision trees, support vector machines, neural nets, deep learning, and so on may allow for more effective ways to model complex relationships. In this essay, I will describe a few of these tools for manipulating and analyzing big data. I believe that these methods have a lot to offer and should be more widely known and used by economists.
