• Abstract summary: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with EEG recordings (TMS-EEG) has shown great potential in the study of the brain and in particular of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) In this study, we propose an automatic method of determining the duration of TMS induced perturbation of the EEG signal as a potential metric reflecting the brain's functional alterations.

• Abstract: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with EEG recordings (TMS-EEG) has shown great potential in the study of the brain and in particular of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). In this study, we propose an automatic method of determining the duration of TMS induced perturbation of the EEG signal as a potential metric reflecting the brain's functional alterations. A preliminary study is conducted in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Three metrics for characterizing the strength and duration of TMS evoked EEG (TEP) activity are proposed and their potential in identifying AD patients from healthy controls was investigated. A dataset of TMS-EEG recordings from 17 AD and 17 healthy controls (HC) was used in our analysis. A Random Forest classification algorithm was trained on the extracted TEP metrics and its performance is evaluated in a leave-one-subject-out cross-validation. The created model showed promising results in identifying AD patients from HC with an accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of 69.32%, 72.23% and 66.41%, respectively.

  Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects the aging population by impairing cognitive and motor functions. This study aims to perform a comprehensive analysis of machine learning techniques for selecting MRI-based biomarkers. Brain regions like the entorhinal cortex, hippocampus, lateral ventricle, and orbitofrontal cortex are identified as significantly impacted during early cognitive decline.
