Proposed Analysis: We propose to develop a novel Bayesian Variable Selection method based on Hopfield Networks in order to select which bio-markers and imaging measurements share a similar longitudinal influence -but at different time lags- on the cognitive assessments. Following previous literature results, this method will use logistic growth curves to set up an appropriate progression model for every patient, borrowing information across patients, and then to proceed with the variable selection algorithm, optimizing a penalized fit.
