• Abstract summary: Characterizing the subtle changes of functional brain networks associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) is important for early diagnosis and prediction of disease progression. We developed a new deep learning method, termed multiple graph Gaussian embedding model (MG2G) We used MG2G to detect the intrinsic latent dimensionality of MEG brain networks, predict the progression of patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD, and identify brain regions with network alterations related to MCI.

• Abstract: Characterizing the subtle changes of functional brain networks associated with the pathological cascade of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is important for early diagnosis and prediction of disease progression prior to clinical symptoms. We developed a new deep learning method, termed multiple graph Gaussian embedding model (MG2G), which can learn highly informative network features by mapping high-dimensional resting-state brain networks into a low-dimensional latent space. These latent distribution-based embeddings enable a quantitative characterization of subtle and heterogeneous brain connectivity patterns at different regions and can be used as input to traditional classifiers for various downstream graph analytic tasks, such as AD early stage prediction, and statistical evaluation of between-group significant alterations across brain regions. We used MG2G to detect the intrinsic latent dimensionality of MEG brain networks, predict the progression of patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD, and identify brain regions with network alterations related to MCI.

  Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder marked by memory loss and cognitive decline. Traditional methods, such as Pearson's correlation, have been used to calculate association matrices. We introduce a novel method that integrates discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and graph theory to model the dynamic behavior of brain networks.

  Brain functional connectome (FC)-based Graph Neural Networks (GNN) have emerged as a valuable tool for the diagnosis and prognosis of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) However, these models are tailored for brain FC at a single time point instead of characterizing FC trajectory. In this work, we proposed the first interpretable framework for brain FC trajectory embedding with application to neurodegenerative disease diagnosis and prognosis.
