Artificial Intelligence Approaches for Early Detection and Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease: A Review

Abstract

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is an irreversible neurodegenerative disease common in the elderly. The application of artificial intelligence technology to the early diagnosis of AD can not only improve the accuracy of prediction compared with traditional methods, but also save the complicated manual feature extraction of traditional methods and speed up the diagnosis. This paper reviews various applications of artificial intelligence algorithms in AD diagnosis, including machine learning, convolutional neural network, graph convolutional neural network, cyclic neural network and other mainstream deep learning technologies. The advantages and disadvantages of each approach are discussed, and finally, we discuss limitations and future prospects.
