Proposed Analysis: The main objective of this research proposal is to develop a deep learning-based approach for predicting cognitive decline in Alzheimer's Disease using ADNI MRI data. Specifically, we aim to: 1. Develop a deep learning model to classify AD and non-AD individuals using MRI images. 2. Investigate the relationship between MRI biomarkers and cognitive decline in AD. 3. Develop a model to predict cognitive decline in AD using MRI images. We plan to use a combination of convolutional neural networks (CNN) and recurrent neural networks (RNN) to develop a deep learning model for classification of AD and non-AD individuals. We will use transfer learning techniques to fine-tune pre-trained CNN models on ADNI MRI images. We will also develop a multi-task RNN model that simultaneously predicts cognitive decline and classifies AD and non-AD individuals using MRI images. We will evaluate the performance of the models using metrics such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC).
