• Abstract: In medical image analysis, the subtle visual characteristics of many diseases are challenging to discern, particularly due to the lack of paired data. For example, in mild Alzheimer's Disease (AD), brain tissue atrophy can be difficult to observe from pure imaging data, especially without paired AD and Cognitively Normal ( CN ) data for comparison. This work presents Disease Discovery GAN ( DiDiGAN), a weakly-supervised style-based framework for discovering and visualising subtle disease features. DiDiGAN learns a disease manifold of AD and CN visual characteristics, and the style codes sampled from this manifold are imposed onto an anatomical structural "blueprint" to synthesise paired AD and CN magnetic resonance images (MRIs). To suppress non-disease-related variations between the generated AD and CN pairs, DiDiGAN leverages a structural constraint with cycle consistency and anti-aliasing to enforce anatomical correspondence. When tested on the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative ( ADNI) dataset, DiDiGAN showed key AD characteristics (reduced hippocampal volume, ventricular enlargement, and atrophy of cortical structures) through synthesising paired AD and CN scans. The qualitative results were backed up by automated brain volume analysis, where systematic pair-wise reductions in brain tissue structures were also measured

  Generative approaches for cross-modality transformation have recently gained significant attention in neuroimaging. We employed a cycle-GAN to synthesize data in an unpaired data transition and enhanced the transition by integrating weak supervision in cases where paired data were available. Our findings revealed that our model could offer remarkable capability, achieving a structural similarity index measure (SSIM) of $0.89 pm 0.003$ for T1s and a correlation of 0.71 pm 0.004$ for FNCs.

  Brain signal visualization has emerged as an active research area, serving as a critical interface between the human visual system and computer vision models. We propose a novel approach, referred to as Controllable Mind Visual Model Diffusion (CMVDM) CMVDM extracts semantic and silhouette information from fMRI data using attribute alignment and assistant networks. We then leverage a control model to fully exploit the extracted information for image synthesis, resulting in generated images that closely resemble the visual stimuli in terms of semantics and silhouette.
