| Proposed Analysis: | n our project, we plan to use the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) dataset that combines many selective biomarkers together for a population of ~1600 participants aged between 55-91 with an aim to detect Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Our aim is to detect the Mild Cognitive Impairment and early AD stages by fusing different modalities such as MRI, PET, genetics, and demographics. We are planning to contribute to the field in three distinct ways: First, we will work on an end-to-end model that incorporates these different modalities in a meaningful way. Second, instead of using a small 'related' Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) subset, we will develop a model that non-linearly embeds a whole SNP sequence into a lower-dimensional vector by exploiting the pre-known related gene information. Lastly, the current state of the art of artificial learning is struggling to infer correlations between distant genes, so we argue that instead of representing the SNP data as a sequence, it may be useful to represent in the form of a grid-like structure that contains the gene interrelations. |
