Valverde JM, Imani V, Abdollahzadeh A, De Feo R, Prakash M, Ciszek R, Tohka J. Transfer Learning in Magnetic Resonance Brain Imaging: A Systematic Review. J Imaging 2021; 7:66. [PMID: 34460516 PMCID: PMC8321322 DOI: 10.3390/jimaging7040066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2021] [Revised: 03/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Transfer learning refers to machine learning techniques that focus on acquiring knowledge from related tasks to improve generalization in the tasks of interest. In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), transfer learning is important for developing strategies that address the variation in MR images from different imaging protocols or scanners. Additionally, transfer learning is beneficial for reutilizing machine learning models that were trained to solve different (but related) tasks to the task of interest. The aim of this review is to identify research directions, gaps in knowledge, applications, and widely used strategies among the transfer learning approaches applied in MR brain imaging; (2) Methods: We performed a systematic literature search for articles that applied transfer learning to MR brain imaging tasks. We screened 433 studies for their relevance, and we categorized and extracted relevant information, including task type, application, availability of labels, and machine learning methods. Furthermore, we closely examined brain MRI-specific transfer learning approaches and other methods that tackled issues relevant to medical imaging, including privacy, unseen target domains, and unlabeled data; (3) Results: We found 129 articles that applied transfer learning to MR brain imaging tasks. The most frequent applications were dementia-related classification tasks and brain tumor segmentation. The majority of articles utilized transfer learning techniques based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Only a few approaches utilized clearly brain MRI-specific methodology, and considered privacy issues, unseen target domains, or unlabeled data. We proposed a new categorization to group specific, widely-used approaches such as pretraining and fine-tuning CNNs; (4) Discussion: There is increasing interest in transfer learning for brain MRI. Well-known public datasets have clearly contributed to the popularity of Alzheimer's diagnostics/prognostics and tumor segmentation as applications. Likewise, the availability of pretrained CNNs has promoted their utilization. Finally, the majority of the surveyed studies did not examine in detail the interpretation of their strategies after applying transfer learning, and did not compare their approach with other transfer learning approaches.

Abstract
Deep learning (DL) methods have been increasingly applied to neuroimaging data to identify patients with psychiatric and neurological disorders. This review provides an overview of the different DL applications within psychiatry and compares DL model accuracy to standard machine learning (SML). Fifty-three articles were included for qualitative analysis, primarily investigating autism spectrum disorder (ASD; n = 22), schizophrenia (SZ; n = 22) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD; n = 9). Thirty-two of the thirty-five studies that directly compared DL to SML reported a higher accuracy for DL. Only sixteen studies could be included in a meta-regression to quantitatively compare DL and SML performance. This showed a higher odds ratio for DL models, though the comparison attained significance only for ASD. Our results suggest that deep learning of neuroimaging data is a promising tool for the classification of individual psychiatric patients. However, it is not yet used to its full potential: most studies use pre-engineered features, whereas one of the main advantages of DL is its ability to learn representations of minimally processed data. Our current evaluation is limited by minimal reporting of performance measures to enable quantitative comparisons, and the restriction to ADHD, SZ and ASD as current research focusses on large publicly available datasets. To truly uncover the added value of DL, we need carefully designed comparisons of SML and DL models which are yet rarely performed.

Abstract
Brain disease is one of the leading causes of death nowadays. Medical imaging is the most effective method for brain disease diagnosis, which provides a clear view of the interior brain. However, manual interpretation requires too much time and effort because medical images contain a large volume of information. Computer aided diagnosis is playing a more and more significant role in the clinic, which can help doctors and physicians to analyze medical images automatically. In this study, a novel pathological brain detection system was proposed for brain magnetic resonance images based on ResNet and randomized neural networks. Firstly, a ResNet was employed as the feature extractor, which was a famous convolutional neural network structure. Then, we used three randomized neural networks, i.e., the Schmidt neural network, the random vector functional-link net, and the extreme learning machine. The weights and biases in the three networks were trained by the chaotic bat algorithm. The three proposed methods achieved similar results based on five runs, and they yielded comparable performance in comparison with state-of-the-art approaches.

Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a brain disorder that develops during an early stage of childhood. Previous neuroimaging-based diagnostic models for ASD were based on static functional connectivity (FC). The nonlinear complexity of brain connectivity remains unexplored for ASD diagnosis. This study aimed to build intelligent discriminative models for ASD based on phase synchrony (PS). To this end, data from 49 patients with ASD and 41 healthy controls were obtained from the Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange (ABIDE) project. PS between brain regions was determined using Hilbert transform. Principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machines (SVMs) were used to build the discriminative models. PS-based models (AUC = 0.81) outperformed static FC-based models (AUC = 0.71). Furthermore, embedded functional biomarkers were discovered. Moreover, significant correlations were found between PCA-PS and the clinical severity of ASD. Together, intelligent discriminative models based on PS were established for ASD identification. The performance of the diagnostic models suggested the potential benefits of PS for clinical applications. The discriminative patterns indicated that PCA-PS features could be additional biomarkers for ASD research. Furthermore, the significant relationships between the PCA-PS features and clinical scores implied their potential use for personalized medication strategies.

Abstract
Deep learning has recently been used for the analysis of neuroimages, such as structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional MRI, and positron emission tomography (PET), and it has achieved significant performance improvements over traditional machine learning in computer-aided diagnosis of brain disorders. This paper reviews the applications of deep learning methods for neuroimaging-based brain disorder analysis. We first provide a comprehensive overview of deep learning techniques and popular network architectures by introducing various types of deep neural networks and recent developments. We then review deep learning methods for computer-aided analysis of four typical brain disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Autism spectrum disorder, and Schizophrenia, where the first two diseases are neurodegenerative disorders and the last two are neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders, respectively. More importantly, we discuss the limitations of existing studies and present possible future directions.

Abstract
The current state of computer vision methods applied to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) research has not been well established. Increasing evidence suggests that computer vision techniques have a strong impact on autism research. The primary objective of this systematic review is to examine how computer vision analysis has been useful in ASD diagnosis, therapy and autism research in general. A systematic review of publications indexed on PubMed, IEEE Xplore and ACM Digital Library was conducted from 2009 to 2019. Search terms included ['autis*' AND ('computer vision' OR 'behavio* imaging' OR 'behavio* analysis' OR 'affective computing')]. Results are reported according to PRISMA statement. A total of 94 studies are included in the analysis. Eligible papers are categorised based on the potential biological/behavioural markers quantified in each study. Then, different computer vision approaches that were employed in the included papers are described. Different publicly available datasets are also reviewed in order to rapidly familiarise researchers with datasets applicable to their field and to accelerate both new behavioural and technological work on autism research. Finally, future research directions are outlined. The findings in this review suggest that computer vision analysis is useful for the quantification of behavioural/biological markers which can further lead to a more objective analysis in autism research.

Early Prediction of Cognitive Deficit in Very Preterm Infants Using Brain Structural Connectome With Transfer Learning Enhanced Deep Convolutional Neural Networks. Front Neurosci 2020; 14:858. [PMID: 33041749 PMCID: PMC7530168 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2020.00858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2020] [Accepted: 07/23/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Up to 40% of very preterm infants (≤32 weeks’ gestational age) were identified with a cognitive deficit at 2 years of age. Yet, accurate clinical diagnosis of cognitive deficit cannot be made until early childhood around 3–5 years of age. Recently, brain structural connectome that was constructed by advanced diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) technique has been playing an important role in understanding human cognitive functions. However, available annotated neuroimaging datasets with clinical and outcome information are usually limited and expensive to enlarge in the very preterm infants’ studies. These challenges hinder the development of neonatal prognostic tools for early prediction of cognitive deficit in very preterm infants. In this study, we considered the brain structural connectome as a 2D image and applied established deep convolutional neural networks to learn the spatial and topological information of the brain connectome. Furthermore, the transfer learning technique was utilized to mitigate the issue of insufficient training data. As such, we developed a transfer learning enhanced convolutional neural network (TL-CNN) model for early prediction of cognitive assessment at 2 years of age in very preterm infants using brain structural connectome. A total of 110 very preterm infants were enrolled in this work. Brain structural connectome was constructed using DTI images scanned at term-equivalent age. Bayley III cognitive assessments were conducted at 2 years of corrected age. We applied the proposed model to both cognitive deficit classification and continuous cognitive score prediction tasks. The results demonstrated that TL-CNN achieved improved performance compared to multiple peer models. Finally, we identified the brain regions most discriminative to the cognitive deficit. The results suggest that deep learning models may facilitate early prediction of later neurodevelopmental outcomes in very preterm infants at term-equivalent age.

Abstract
Survivors following very premature birth (i.e., ≤ 32 weeks gestational age) remain at high risk for neurodevelopmental impairments. Recent advances in deep learning techniques have made it possible to aid the early diagnosis and prognosis of neurodevelopmental deficits. Deep learning models typically require training on large datasets, and unfortunately, large neuroimaging datasets with clinical outcome annotations are typically limited, especially in neonates. Transfer learning represents an important step to solve the fundamental problem of insufficient training data in deep learning. In this work, we developed a multi-task, multi-stage deep transfer learning framework using the fusion of brain connectome and clinical data for early joint prediction of multiple abnormal neurodevelopmental (cognitive, language and motor) outcomes at 2 years corrected age in very preterm infants. The proposed framework maximizes the value of both available annotated and non-annotated data in model training by performing both supervised and unsupervised learning. We first pre-trained a deep neural network prototype in a supervised fashion using 884 older children and adult subjects, and then re-trained this prototype using 291 neonatal subjects without supervision. Finally, we fine-tuned and validated the pre-trained model using 33 preterm infants. Our proposed model identified very preterm infants at high-risk for cognitive, language, and motor deficits at 2 years corrected age with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.86, 0.66 and 0.84, respectively. Employing such a deep learning model, once externally validated, may facilitate risk stratification at term-equivalent age for early identification of long-term neurodevelopmental deficits and targeted early interventions to improve clinical outcomes in very preterm infants.

Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental incurable disorder with a long diagnostic period encountered in the early years of life. If diagnosed early, the negative effects of this disease can be reduced by starting special education early. Machine learning (ML), an increasingly ubiquitous technology, can be applied for the early diagnosis of ASD. The aim of this study is to examine and provide a comprehensive state-of-the-art review of ML research for the diagnosis of ASD based on (a) structural magnetic resonance image (MRI), (b) functional MRI and (c) hybrid imaging techniques over the past decade. The accuracy of the studies with a large number of participants is in general lower than those with fewer participants leading to the conclusion that further large-scale studies are needed. An examination of the age of the participants shows that the accuracy of the automated diagnosis of ASD is higher at a younger age range. ML technology is expected to contribute significantly to the early and rapid diagnosis of ASD in the coming years and become available to clinicians in the near future. This review is aimed to facilitate that.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rare diseases affect approximately 350 million people worldwide. Delayed diagnosis is frequent due to lack of knowledge of most clinicians and a small number of expert centers. Consequently, computerized diagnosis support systems have been developed to address these issues, with many relying on rare disease expertise and taking advantage of the increasing volume of generated and accessible health-related data. Our objective is to perform a review of all initiatives aiming to support the diagnosis of rare diseases. METHODS A scoping review was conducted based on methods proposed by Arksey and O'Malley. A charting form for relevant study analysis was developed and used to categorize data. RESULTS Sixty-eight studies were retained at the end of the charting process. Diagnosis targets varied from 1 rare disease to all rare diseases. Material used for diagnosis support consisted mostly of phenotype concepts, images or fluids. Fifty-seven percent of the studies used expert knowledge. Two-thirds of the studies relied on machine learning algorithms, and one-third used simple similarities. Manual algorithms were encountered as well. Most of the studies presented satisfying performance of evaluation by comparison with references or with external validation. Fourteen studies provided online tools, most of which aimed to support the diagnosis of all rare diseases by considering queries based on phenotype concepts. CONCLUSION Numerous solutions relying on different materials and use of various methodologies are emerging with satisfying preliminary results. However, the variability of approaches and evaluation processes complicates the comparison of results. Efforts should be made to adequately validate these tools and guarantee reproducibility and explicability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the recent years, machine learning algorithms have been more widely and increasingly applied in biomedical fields. In particular, their application has been drawing more attention in the field of psychiatry, for instance, as diagnostic tests/tools for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, given their complexity and potential clinical implications, there is an ongoing need for further research on their accuracy. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to summarize the available evidence for the accuracy of machine learning algorithms in diagnosing ASD. METHODS The following databases were searched on November 28, 2018: MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL Complete (with Open Dissertations), PsycINFO, and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Xplore Digital Library. Studies that used a machine learning algorithm partially or fully for distinguishing individuals with ASD from control subjects and provided accuracy measures were included in our analysis. The bivariate random effects model was applied to the pooled data in a meta-analysis. A subgroup analysis was used to investigate and resolve the source of heterogeneity between studies. True-positive, false-positive, false-negative, and true-negative values from individual studies were used to calculate the pooled sensitivity and specificity values, draw Summary Receiver Operating Characteristics curves, and obtain the area under the curve (AUC) and partial AUC (pAUC). RESULTS A total of 43 studies were included for the final analysis, of which a meta-analysis was performed on 40 studies (53 samples with 12,128 participants). A structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) subgroup meta-analysis (12 samples with 1776 participants) showed a sensitivity of 0.83 (95% CI 0.76-0.89), a specificity of 0.84 (95% CI 0.74-0.91), and AUC/pAUC of 0.90/0.83. A functional magnetic resonance imaging/deep neural network subgroup meta-analysis (5 samples with 1345 participants) showed a sensitivity of 0.69 (95% CI 0.62-0.75), specificity of 0.66 (95% CI 0.61-0.70), and AUC/pAUC of 0.71/0.67. CONCLUSIONS The accuracy of machine learning algorithms for diagnosis of ASD was considered acceptable by few accuracy measures only in cases of sMRI use; however, given the many limitations indicated in our study, further well-designed studies are warranted to extend the potential use of machine learning algorithms to clinical settings.

A Multichannel Deep Neural Network Model Analyzing Multiscale Functional Brain Connectome Data for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Detection. Radiol Artif Intell 2019; 2:e190012. [PMID: 32076663 DOI: 10.1148/ryai.2019190012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2019] [Revised: 07/18/2019] [Accepted: 07/25/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Purpose To develop a multichannel deep neural network (mcDNN) classification model based on multiscale brain functional connectome data and demonstrate the value of this model by using attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) detection as an example. Materials and Methods In this retrospective case-control study, existing data from the Neuro Bureau ADHD-200 dataset consisting of 973 participants were used. Multiscale functional brain connectomes based on both anatomic and functional criteria were constructed. The mcDNN model used the multiscale brain connectome data and personal characteristic data (PCD) as joint features to detect ADHD and identify the most predictive brain connectome features for ADHD diagnosis. The mcDNN model was compared with single-channel deep neural network (scDNN) models and the classification performance was evaluated through cross-validation and hold-out validation with the metrics of accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results In the cross-validation, the mcDNN model using combined features (fusion of the multiscale brain connectome data and PCD) achieved the best performance in ADHD detection with an AUC of 0.82 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.80, 0.83) compared with scDNN models using the features of the brain connectome at each individual scale and PCD, independently. In the hold-out validation, the mcDNN model achieved an AUC of 0.74 (95% CI: 0.73, 0.76). Conclusion An mcDNN model was developed for multiscale brain functional connectome data, and its utility for ADHD detection was demonstrated. By fusing the multiscale brain connectome data, the mcDNN model improved ADHD detection performance considerably over the use of a single scale.© RSNA, 2019.

Abstract
Heterogeneous mental disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are notoriously difficult to diagnose, especially in children. The current psychiatric diagnostic process is based purely on the behavioral observation of symptomology (DSM-5/ICD-10) and may be prone to misdiagnosis. In order to move the field toward more quantitative diagnosis, we need advanced and scalable machine learning infrastructure that will allow us to identify reliable biomarkers of mental health disorders. In this paper, we propose a framework called ASD-DiagNet for classifying subjects with ASD from healthy subjects by using only fMRI data. We designed and implemented a joint learning procedure using an autoencoder and a single layer perceptron (SLP) which results in improved quality of extracted features and optimized parameters for the model. Further, we designed and implemented a data augmentation strategy, based on linear interpolation on available feature vectors, that allows us to produce synthetic datasets needed for training of machine learning models. The proposed approach is evaluated on a public dataset provided by Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange including 1, 035 subjects coming from 17 different brain imaging centers. Our machine learning model outperforms other state of the art methods from 10 imaging centers with increase in classification accuracy up to 28% with maximum accuracy of 82%. The machine learning technique presented in this paper, in addition to yielding better quality, gives enormous advantages in terms of execution time (40 min vs. 7 h on other methods). The implemented code is available as GPL license on GitHub portal of our lab (https://github.com/pcdslab/ASD-DiagNet).

Abstract
Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) were designed for dealing with time-series data and have recently been used for creating predictive models from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. However, gathering large fMRI datasets for learning is a difficult task. Furthermore, network interpretability is unclear. To address these issues, we utilize multitask learning and design a novel RNN-based model that learns to discriminate between classes while simultaneously learning to generate the fMRI time-series data. Employing the long short-term memory (LSTM) structure, we develop a discriminative model based on the hidden state and a generative model based on the cell state. The addition of the generative model constrains the network to learn functional communities represented by the LSTM nodes that are both consistent with the data generation as well as useful for the classification task. We apply our approach to the classification of subjects with autism vs. healthy controls using several datasets from the Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange. Experiments show that our jointly discriminative and generative model improves classification learning while also producing robust and meaningful functional communities for better model understanding.

Abstract
Automatic segmentation methods based on deep learning have recently demonstrated state-of-the-art performance, outperforming the ordinary methods. Nevertheless, these methods are inapplicable for small datasets, which are very common in medical problems. To this end, we propose a knowledge transfer method between diseases via the Generative Bayesian Prior network. Our approach is compared to a pre-train approach and random initialization and obtains the best results in terms of Dice Similarity Coefficient metric for the small subsets of the Brain Tumor Segmentation 2018 database (BRATS2018).

Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder, affecting about 1% of the global population. Currently, the only clinical method for diagnosing ASD are standardized ASD tests which require prolonged diagnostic time and increased medical costs. Our objective was to explore the predictive power of personal characteristic data (PCD) from a large well-characterized dataset to improve upon prior diagnostic models of ASD. We extracted six personal characteristics (age, sex, handedness, and three individual measures of IQ) from 851 subjects in the Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange (ABIDE) database. ABIDE is an international collaborative project that collected data from a large number of ASD patients and typical non-ASD controls from 17 research and clinical institutes. We employed this publicly available database to test nine supervised machine learning models. We implemented a cross-validation strategy to train and test those machine learning models for classification between typical non-ASD controls and ASD patients. We assessed classification performance using accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Of the nine models we tested using six personal characteristics, the neural network model performed the best with a mean AUC (SD) of 0.646 (0.005), followed by k-nearest neighbor with a mean AUC (SD) of 0.641 (0.004). This study established an optimal ASD classification performance with PCD as features. With additional discriminative features (e.g., neuroimaging), machine learning models may ultimately enable automated clinical diagnosis of autism.

Abstract
What has happened in machine learning lately, and what does it mean for the future of medical image analysis? Machine learning has witnessed a tremendous amount of attention over the last few years. The current boom started around 2009 when so-called deep artificial neural networks began outperforming other established models on a number of important benchmarks. Deep neural networks are now the state-of-the-art machine learning models across a variety of areas, from image analysis to natural language processing, and widely deployed in academia and industry. These developments have a huge potential for medical imaging technology, medical data analysis, medical diagnostics and healthcare in general, slowly being realized. We provide a short overview of recent advances and some associated challenges in machine learning applied to medical image processing and image analysis. As this has become a very broad and fast expanding field we will not survey the entire landscape of applications, but put particular focus on deep learning in MRI. Our aim is threefold: (i) give a brief introduction to deep learning with pointers to core references; (ii) indicate how deep learning has been applied to the entire MRI processing chain, from acquisition to image retrieval, from segmentation to disease prediction; (iii) provide a starting point for people interested in experimenting and perhaps contributing to the field of deep learning for medical imaging by pointing out good educational resources, state-of-the-art open-source code, and interesting sources of data and problems related medical imaging.
