Proposed Analysis: The aim of the study is to answer the following research questions: · How predictable is progression to Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) in at-risk individuals? · Which data, processing pipelines, and predictive models best predict future AD progression? · Can we use such methods to improve cohort selection for clinical trials? We will answer these questions by developing an explainable predictive machine learning model from the 4 "standard" data sets provided by TADPOLE. · D1 - a comprehensive longitudinal data set for training; · D2 - a comprehensive longitudinal data set on rollover subjects for forecasting; · D3 - a limited forecasting data set on the same rollover subjects as D2. D4 - the future data set for testing We will try different types of predictive machine learning algorithms including xgboost, random forest, dnn and integrate a explainable machine learning approach—Shapley value, to evaluate different driven forces for the progression of alzheimer’s disease.
