Abstract in brief

  • It compares different classifiers, combines their decisions through voting, and tests how well these methods work across different datasets and MRI protocols, like IRSPGR and MPRAGE.
  • The results showed high accuracy, with one classifier achieving a balanced accuracy of 90.6% in distinguishing healthy controls from AD patients, and the importance of hippocampal and temporal brain regions in making these classifications, which aligns with known AD pathology.
  • The study also emphasizes that these classifiers perform well across multiple datasets and protocols, indicating good generalizability.
  • Incorporating advanced measures like graph theory helped improve the interpretability and performance of the models, showing promise for real-world clinical use in early and reliable AD diagnosis.
  • This work highlights the potential of combining multiple ML techniques and brain features to create effective tools for diagnosing AD in diverse clinical settings.
