• Abstract: Deep learning shows high potential for many medical image analysis tasks. Neural networks can work with full-size data without extensive preprocessing and feature generation and, thus, information loss. Recent work has shown that the morphological difference in specific brain regions can be found on MRI with the means of Convolution Neural Networks (CNN). However, interpretation of the existing models is based on a region of interest and can not be extended to voxel-wise image interpretation on a whole image. In the current work, we consider the classification task on a large-scale open-source dataset of young healthy subjects -- an exploration of brain differences between men and women. In this paper, we extend the previous findings in gender differences from diffusion-tensor imaging on T1 brain MRI scans. We provide the voxel-wise 3D CNN interpretation comparing the results of three interpretation methods: Meaningful Perturbations, Grad CAM and Guided Backpropagation, and contribute with the open-source library.

  Graph convolutional networks (GCN) leverage topology-driven graph convolutional operations to combine information across the graph for inference tasks. We have studied GCNs with covariance matrices as graphs in the form of coVariance neural networks (VNNs) VNNs inherit the scale-free data processing architecture from GCNs and here, we show that VNNs exhibit transferability of performance over datasets whose covariance matrices converge to a limit object.

  We propose to process the 3D data by a 2+1D framework so that we can exploit the powerful deep 2D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) networks pre-trained on the huge ImageNet dataset for 3D neuroimaging recognition. Specifically, 3D volumes of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) metrics are decomposed to 2D slices according to neighboring voxel positions. Global pooling is applied to remove redundant information as the activation patterns are sparsely distributed over feature maps. Channel-wise and slice-wise convolutions are proposed to aggregate the contextual information in the third dimension unprocessed by the 2D CNN model.

  We have recently studied covariance neural networks (VNNs) that operate on sample covariance matrices. In this paper, we demonstrate the utility of VNNs in inferring brain age using cortical thickness data. Our results show that VNNs exhibit multi-scale and multi-site transferability for inferring brain age In the context of brain age in Alzheimer's disease (AD), our experiments show that i) VNN outputs are interpretable as brain age predicted using VNNs is significantly elevated for AD with respect to healthy subjects.

  Convolutional networks are successful, but they have recently been outperformed by new neural networks that are equivariant under rotations and translations. Here we generalize them to 6D diffusion MRI data, ensuring joint equivariance under 3D roto-translations in image space and the matching 3D rotations in $q$-space. Our proposed neural networks yield better results and require fewer scans for training compared to non-rotation-equivariant deep learning.
