A Multi-Modal Deep Learning Approach to the Early Prediction of Mild Cognitive Impairment Conversion to Alzheimer's Disease (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Rana, S. S., Ma, X., Pang, W., & Wolverson, E. (2020, December). A Multi-Modal Deep Learning Approach to the Early Prediction of Mild Cognitive Impairment Conversion to Alzheimer's Disease. Presented at 2020 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Big Data Computing, Applications and Technologies (BDCAT), Leicester, United Kingdom

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has been described as the intermediary stage before Alzheimer's Disease - many people however remain stable or even demonstrate improvement in cognition. Early detection of progressive MCI (pMCI) therefore can be utili...
