• Abstract: As the aging population grows, particularly for the baby boomer generation, the United States is witnessing a significant increase in the elderly population experiencing multifunctional disabilities. These disabilities, stemming from a variety of chronic diseases, injuries, and impairments, present a complex challenge due to their multidimensional nature, encompassing both physical and cognitive aspects. Traditional methods often use univariate regression-based methods to model and predict single degradation conditions and assume population homogeneity, which is inadequate to address the complexity and diversity of aging-related degradation. This study introduces a novel framework for multi-functional degradation modeling that captures the multidimensional (e.g., physical and cognitive) and heterogeneous nature of elderly disabilities. Utilizing deep learning, our approach predicts health degradation scores and uncovers latent heterogeneity from elderly health histories, offering both efficient estimation and explainable insights into the diverse effects and causes of aging-related degradation. A real-case study demonstrates the effectiveness and marks a pivotal contribution to accurately modeling the intricate dynamics of elderly degradation, and addresses the healthcare challenges in the aging population.

  Alzheimer's disease (AD) has become one of the most significant health challenges in an aging society.

Our new features can be well explained and interpreted step by step which enhance the interpretability of automatic AD screening.

  We first formulate a simple standard baseline and build a much strong one by collecting the tricks in pre-training, data augmentation, model architecture, and so on. Compared with the standard baseline, the proposed one significantly decreases the estimation errors. We propose a two-stage training method named Long-tailed Age Estimation (LAE), which decouples the learning procedure into representation learning and classification.
