• Abstract: Alzheimer's patients gradually lose their ability to think, behave, and interact with others. Medical history, laboratory tests, daily activities, and personality changes can all be used to diagnose the disorder. A series of time-consuming and expensive tests are used to diagnose the illness. The most effective way to identify Alzheimer's disease is using a Random-forest classifier in this study, along with various other Machine Learning techniques. The main goal of this study is to fine-tune the classifier to detect illness with fewer tests while maintaining a reasonable disease discovery accuracy. We successfully identified the condition in almost 94% of cases using four of the thirty frequently utilized indicators.

  Alzheimer's Disease (AD) detection has emerged as a promising research area that employs machine learning classification models. We identify within-class variation as a critical challenge in AD detection: individuals with AD exhibit a spectrum of cognitive impairments. We propose two novel methods: Soft Target Distillation (SoTD) and Instance-level Re-balancing (InRe), targeting two problems respectively.

  This study delves into the challenging task of classifying Alzheimer's disease into four distinct groups: control normal (CN), progressive mild cognitive impairment (pMCI), stable mild cognitive impairment (sMCI), and Alzheimer's disease (AD) Several deep-learning and traditional machine-learning models have been used to detect Alzheimer's disease. The results show that using deep-learning models to tell the difference between MCI patients gives an overall average accuracy of 93.13% and an AUC of 94.4%.

  Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease is a challenge because the existing methodologies do not identify the patients in their preclinical stage. Several research studies demonstrate the potential of cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers, amyloid beta 1-42, T-tau, and P-tau, in early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease stages. We used machine learning models to classify different stages of Alzheimer's disease based on the cerebrospinal fluid biomarker levels alone.

  Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most widespread neurodegenerative disease, affecting over 50 million people across the world. Currently, only qualitative means of testing are employed in the form of scoring performance on a battery of cognitive tests. We have developed ADiag, a novel quantitative method to diagnose AD through GraphSAGE Network and Dense Differentiable Pooling (DDP) analysis. Preliminary tests of ADiag have revealed a robust accuracy of 83%, vastly outperforming other qualitative and quantitative diagnostic techniques.
