Implementation of a 3D Convolutional Neural Network Predictive Model for the Transition from Mild Cognitive Impairment to Alzheimer’s Disease using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Images
Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurological disorder that causes loss of autonomy and memory in people who suffer from it. Due to the increase in cases of this disease and the lack of accuracy of diagnostic tools, new tools capable of addressing this issue are being developed. The main objective of this research work is to implement a three-dimensional convolutional neural network model with AlexNet3D type base structure to predict the possible diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). from the analysis of magnetic resonance images, using as an early stage mild cognitive impairment syndrome (MCI). The construction phases of the project will be explained, divided into database selection, feature selection, data processing, model development for training and validation, and finally, results obtained from prediction tests. With this it was possible to obtain a percentage of 72,222 %, allowing the K-Net95 model to be cataloged as a stable and efficient network, despite the computational limitations to which the project was limited.
