Proposed Analysis: | This project would explore the hypothesis that combining complementary neuroimaging data (multimodal data) and transfer learning to classify Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients would yield better performance than single modality data. An increase in performance would lead to a more accurate diagnosis and prognosis of people living with AD. This work would apply deep learning models on positron emission tomography (PET) images and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using transfer learning. The following steps will investigate the hypothesis that multimodal neuroimaging data and transfer learning would yield a superior result. (1) Data curation and augmentation to ensure a balanced dataset. (2) Convolutional neural network for fusing MRI and PET modalities. (3) Evaluate the outcome of the fusion in comparison to single modality classification |
