Abstract
Recently, the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease has gained major attention due to the growing prevalence of the disease and the resulting costs imposed on individuals and society. The main objective of this study was to propose an ensemble method based on deep learning for the early diagnosis of AD using MRI images. The methodology of this study consisted of collecting the dataset, preprocessing, creating the individual and ensemble models, evaluating the models based on ADNI data, and validating the trained model based on the local dataset. The proposed method was an ensemble approach selected through a comparative analysis of various ensemble scenarios. Finally, the six best individual CNN-based classifiers were selected to combine and constitute the ensemble model. The evaluation showed an accuracy rate of 98.57, 96.37, 94.22, 99.83, 93.88, and 93.92 for NC/AD, NC/EMCI, EMCI/LMCI, LMCI/AD, four-way and three-way classification groups, respectively. The validation results on the local dataset revealed an accuracy of 88.46 for three-way classification. Our performance results were higher than most reviewed studies and comparable with others. Although comparative analysis showed superior results of ensemble methods against individual architectures, there were no significant differences among various ensemble approaches. The validation results revealed the low performance of individual models in practice. In contrast, the ensemble method showed promising results. However, further studies on various and larger datasets are required to validate the generalizability of the model.

Predictive modelling of brain disorders with magnetic resonance imaging: A systematic review of modelling practices, transparency, and interpretability in the use of convolutional neural networks.

[PMID: 37909364 PMCID: PMC10681646 DOI: 10.1002/hbm.26521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Brain disorders comprise several psychiatric and neurological disorders which can be characterized by impaired cognition, mood alteration, psychosis, depressive episodes, and neurodegeneration. Clinical diagnoses primarily rely on a combination of life history information and questionnaires, with a distinct lack of discriminative biomarkers in use for psychiatric disorders. Symptoms across brain conditions are associated with functional alterations of cognitive and emotional processes, which can correlate with anatomical variation; structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of the brain are therefore an important focus of research, particularly for predictive modelling. With the advent of large MRI data consortia (such as the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative) facilitating a greater number of MRI-based classification studies, convolutional neural networks (CNNs)-deep learning models well suited to image processing tasks-have become increasingly popular for research into brain conditions. This has resulted in a myriad of studies reporting impressive predictive performances, demonstrating the potential clinical value of deep learning systems. However, methodologies can vary widely across studies, making them difficult to compare and/or reproduce, potentially limiting their clinical application. Here, we conduct a qualitative systematic literature review of 55 studies carrying out CNN-based predictive modelling of brain disorders using MRI data and evaluate them based on three principles-modelling practices, transparency, and interpretability. We propose several recommendations to enhance the potential for the integration of CNNs into clinical care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Artificial intelligence (AI) and neuroimaging offer new opportunities for diagnosis and prognosis of dementia. METHODS We systematically reviewed studies reporting AI for neuroimaging in diagnosis and/or prognosis of cognitive neurodegenerative diseases. RESULTS A total of 255 studies were identified. Most studies relied on the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative dataset. Algorithmic classifiers were the most commonly used AI method (48%) and discriminative models performed best for differentiating Alzheimer's disease from controls. The accuracy of algorithms varied with the patient cohort, imaging modalities, and stratifiers used. Few studies performed validation in an independent cohort. DISCUSSION The literature has several methodological limitations including lack of sufficient algorithm development descriptions and standard definitions. We make recommendations to improve model validation including addressing key clinical questions, providing sufficient description of AI methods and validating findings in independent datasets. Collaborative approaches between experts in AI and medicine will help achieve the promising potential of AI tools in practice. HIGHLIGHTS There has been a rapid expansion in the use of machine learning for diagnosis and prognosis in neurodegenerative disease Most studies (71%) relied on the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) dataset with no other individual dataset used more than five times There has been a recent rise in the use of more complex discriminative models (e.g., neural networks) that performed better than other classifiers for classification of AD vs healthy controls We make recommendations to address methodological considerations, addressing key clinical questions, and validation We also make recommendations for the field more broadly to standardize outcome measures, address gaps in the literature, and monitor sources of bias.

Abstract
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a brain disorder that causes the brain to shrink and eventually causes brain cells to die. This neurological condition progressively hampers cognitive and memory functions, along with the ability to carry out fundamental tasks over time. From the symptoms it is very difficult to detect during its early stage. It has become necessary to develop a computer assisted diagnostic models for the early AD detection. This survey work, discussed about a review of 110 published AD detection methods and techniques from the year 2011 to till-date. This study lies in its comprehensive exploration of AD detection methods using a range of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques and neuroimaging modalities. By collecting and analysing 50 papers related to AD diagnosis datasets, the study provides a comprehensive understanding of the diversity of input types, subjects, and classes used in AD research. Summarizing 60 papers on methodologies gives researchers a succinct overview of various approaches that contribute to enhancing detection accuracy. From the review, data are acquired and pre-processed form multiple modalities of neuroimaging. This paper mainly focused on review of different datasets used, various feature extraction methods, parameters used in neuro images. To diagnosis the Alzheimer's disease, the existing methods utilized three most common artificial intelligence techniques such as machine learning, deep learning, and transfer learning. We conclude this survey work by providing future perspectives for AD diagnosis at early stage.

Abstract
Background The convolutional neural network (CNN) is a mainstream deep learning (DL) algorithm, and it has gained great fame in solving problems from clinical examination and diagnosis, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is a degenerative disease difficult to clinical diagnosis due to its unclear underlying pathological mechanism. Previous studies have primarily focused on investigating structural abnormalities in the brain's functional networks related to the AD or proposing different deep learning approaches for AD classification. Objective The aim of this study is to leverage the advantages of combining brain topological features extracted from functional network exploration and deep features extracted by the CNN. We establish a novel fMRI-based classification framework that utilizes Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) with the phase synchronization index (PSI) and 2D-CNN to detect abnormal brain functional connectivity in AD. Methods First, PSI was applied to construct the brain network by region of interest (ROI) signals obtained from data preprocessing stage, and eight topological features were extracted. Subsequently, the 2D-CNN was applied to the PSI matrix to explore the local and global patterns of the network connectivity by extracting eight deep features from the 2D-CNN convolutional layer. Results Finally, classification analysis was carried out on the combined PSI and 2D-CNN methods to recognize AD by using support vector machine (SVM) with 5-fold cross-validation strategy. It was found that the classification accuracy of combined method achieved 98.869%. Conclusion These findings show that our framework can adaptively combine the best brain network features to explore network synchronization, functional connections, and characterize brain functional abnormalities, which could effectively detect AD anomalies by the extracted features that may provide new insights into exploring the underlying pathogenesis of AD.

A comprehensive characterization of hippocampal feature ensemble serves as individualized brain signature for Alzheimer's disease: deep learning analysis in 3238 participants worldwide.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Hippocampal characterization is one of the most significant hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD); rather, the single-level feature is insufficient. A comprehensive hippocampal characterization is pivotal for developing a well-performing biomarker for AD. To verify whether a comprehensive characterization of hippocampal features of gray matter volume, segmentation probability, and radiomics features could better distinguish AD from normal control (NC), and to investigate whether the classification decision score could serve as a robust and individualized brain signature. METHODS A total of 3238 participants' structural MRI from four independent databases were employed to conduct a 3D residual attention network (3DRA-Net) to classify NC, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and AD. The generalization was validated under inter-database cross-validation. The neurobiological basis of the classification decision score as a neuroimaging biomarker was systematically investigated by association with clinical profiles, as well as longitudinal trajectory analysis to reveal AD progression. All image analyses were performed only upon the single modality of T1-weighted MRI. RESULTS Our study exhibited an outstanding performance (ACC = 91.6%, AUC = 0.95) of the comprehensive characterization of hippocampal features in distinguishing AD (n = 282) from NC (n = 603) in Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative cohort, and ACC = 89.2% and AUC = 0.93 under external validation. More importantly, the constructed score was significantly correlated with clinical profiles (p < 0.05), and dynamically altered over the AD longitudinal progression, provided compelling evidence of a solid neurobiological basis. CONCLUSIONS This systemic study highlights the potential of the comprehensive characterization of hippocampal features to provide an individualized, generalizable, and biologically plausible neuroimaging biomarker for early detection of AD. KEY POINTS • The comprehensive characterization of hippocampal features exhibited ACC = 91.6% (AUC = 0.95) in classifying AD from NC under intra-database cross-validation, and ACC = 89.2% (AUC = 0.93) in external validation. • The constructed classification score was significantly associated with clinical profiles, and dynamically altered over the AD longitudinal progression, which highlighted its potential of being an individualized, generalizable, and biologically plausible neuroimaging biomarker for early detection of AD.

Abstract
Accurately diagnosing of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and its early stages is critical for prompt treatment or potential intervention to delay the the disease's progression. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) models have shown promising results in structural MRI (sMRI)-based diagnosis, but their performance, particularly for 3D models, is constrained by the lack of labeled training samples. To address the overfitting problem brought on by the insufficient training sample size, we propose a three-round learning strategy that combines transfer learning with generative adversarial learning. In the first round, a 3D Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGAN) model was trained with all available sMRI data to learn the common feature of sMRI through unsupervised generative adversarial learning. The second round involved transferring and fine-tuning, and the pre-trained discriminator (D) of the DCGAN learned more specific features for the classification task between AD and cognitively normal (CN). In the final round, the weights learned in the AD versus CN classification task were transferred to the MCI diagnosis. By highlighting brain regions with high prediction weights using 3D Grad-CAM, we further enhanced the model's interpretability. The proposed model achieved accuracies of 92.8%, 78.1%, and 76.4% in the classifications of AD versus CN, AD versus MCI, and MCI versus CN, respectively. The experimental results show that our proposed model avoids overfitting brought on by a paucity of sMRI data and enables the early detection of AD.

Abstract
Deep learning algorithms have a huge influence on tackling research issues in the field of medical image processing. It acts as a vital aid for the radiologists in producing accurate results toward effective disease diagnosis. The objective of this research is to highlight the importance of deep learning models in the detection of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The main objective of this research is to analyze different deep learning methods used for detecting AD. This study examines 103 research articles published in various research databases. These articles have been selected based on specific criteria to find the most relevant findings in the field of AD detection. The review was carried out based on deep learning techniques such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and Transfer Learning (TL). To propose accurate methods for the detection, segmentation, and severity grading of AD, the radiological features need to be examined in greater depth. This review attempts to analyze different deep learning methods applied for AD detection using neuroimaging modalities like Positron Emission Tomography (PET), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), etc. The focus of this review is restricted to deep learning works based on radiological imaging data for AD detection. There are a few works that have utilized other biomarkers to understand the effect of AD. Also, articles published in English were alone considered for analysis. This work concludes by highlighting the key research issues towards effective AD detection. Though several methods have yielded promising results in AD detection, the progression from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) to AD need to be analyzed in greater depth using DL models.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and there is no effective treatment currently. Using artificial intelligence technology to assist the diagnosis and intervention as early as possible is of great significance to delay the development of AD. Structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (sMRI) has shown great practical values on computer-aided AD diagnosis. Affected by data from different sources or acquisition domains in realistic scenarios, MRI data often suffer from domain shift problem. In this paper, we propose a deep Prototype-Guided Multi-Scale Domain Adaptation (PMDA) framework to handle MRI data with domain shift problem, and realize automatic auxiliary diagnosis of AD, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Cognitively Normal (CN). PMDA is composed of three modules: (1) MRI multi-scale feature extraction module combines the advantages of 3D convolution and self-attention to effectively extract multi-scale features in high-dimensional space, (2) Prototype Maximum Density Divergence (Pro-MDD) module adopts prototype learning to constrain the feature outlier samples in a mini-batch when MDD is used to align source domain and target domain, and (3) Adversarial Domain Adaptation module is applied to achieve global feature alignment of the source domain and target domain and co-training two distinctive discriminators to mitigate the over-fitting issue. Experiments have been performed on 3T and 1.5T sMRI with domain shift in ADNI dataset. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed framework PMDA outperforms supervised learning methods and several state-of-the-art domain adaptation methods and achieves a superior accuracy of 92.11%, 76.01% and 82.37% on AD vs. CN, AD vs. MCI, and MCI vs. CN tasks, respectively.

Abstract
Progress in dementia research has been limited, with substantial gaps in our knowledge of targets for prevention, mechanisms for disease progression, and disease-modifying treatments. The growing availability of multimodal data sets opens possibilities for the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to help answer key questions in the field. We provide an overview of the state of the science, highlighting current challenges and opportunities for utilisation of AI approaches to move the field forward in the areas of genetics, experimental medicine, drug discovery and trials optimisation, imaging, and prevention. Machine learning methods can enhance results of genetic studies, help determine biological effects and facilitate the identification of drug targets based on genetic and transcriptomic information. The use of unsupervised learning for understanding disease mechanisms for drug discovery is promising, while analysis of multimodal data sets to characterise and quantify disease severity and subtype are also beginning to contribute to optimisation of clinical trial recruitment. Data-driven experimental medicine is needed to analyse data across modalities and develop novel algorithms to translate insights from animal models to human disease biology. AI methods in neuroimaging outperform traditional approaches for diagnostic classification, and although challenges around validation and translation remain, there is optimism for their meaningful integration to clinical practice in the near future. AI-based models can also clarify our understanding of the causality and commonality of dementia risk factors, informing and improving risk prediction models along with the development of preventative interventions. The complexity and heterogeneity of dementia requires an alternative approach beyond traditional design and analytical approaches. Although not yet widely used in dementia research, machine learning and AI have the potential to unlock current challenges and advance precision dementia medicine.

[PMID: 36823586 PMCID: PMC9948384 DOI: 10.1186/s12906-023-03888-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2022] [Accepted: 02/14/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acupuncture effectively improves cognitive function in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Many neuroimaging studies have found significant brain alterations after acupuncture treatment of AD, but the underlying central modulation mechanism is unclear. OBJECTIVE This review aims to provide neuroimaging evidence to understand the central mechanisms of acupuncture in patients with AD. METHODS Relevant neuroimaging studies about acupuncture for AD were retrieved from eight English and Chinese medicine databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, SinoMed, CNKI, WF, VIP) and other resources from inception of databases until June 1, 2022, and their methodological quality was assessed using RoB 2.0 and ROBINS - I. Brain neuroimaging information was extracted to investigate the potential neural mechanism of acupuncture for AD. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis. RESULTS Thirteen neuroimaging studies involving 275 participants were included in this review, and the overall methodological quality of included studies was moderate. The approaches applied included task-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (ts-fMRI; n = 9 studies) and rest-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI; n = 4 studies). All studies focused on the instant effect of acupuncture on the brains of AD participants, including the cingulate gyrus, middle frontal gyrus, and cerebellum, indicating that acupuncture may regulate the default mode, central executive, and frontoparietal networks. CONCLUSION This study provides evidence of the neural mechanisms underlying the effect of acupuncture on AD involving cognitive- and motor-associated networks. However, this evidence is still in the preliminary investigation stage. Large-scale, well-designed, multimodal neuroimaging trials are still required to provide comprehensive insight into the central mechanism underlying the effect of acupuncture on AD.

OViTAD: Optimized Vision Transformer to Predict Various Stages of Alzheimer's Disease Using Resting-State fMRI and Structural MRI Data. Brain Sci 2023; 13:brainsci13020260. [PMID: 36831803 PMCID: PMC9954686 DOI: 10.3390/brainsci13020260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Advances in applied machine learning techniques for neuroimaging have encouraged scientists to implement models to diagnose brain disorders such as Alzheimer's disease at early stages. Predicting the exact stage of Alzheimer's disease is challenging; however, complex deep learning techniques can precisely manage this. While successful, these complex architectures are difficult to interrogate and computationally expensive. Therefore, using novel, simpler architectures with more efficient pattern extraction capabilities, such as transformers, is of interest to neuroscientists. This study introduced an optimized vision transformer architecture to predict the group membership by separating healthy adults, mild cognitive impairment, and Alzheimer's brains within the same age group (>75 years) using resting-state functional (rs-fMRI) and structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) data aggressively preprocessed by our pipeline. Our optimized architecture, known as OViTAD is currently the sole vision transformer-based end-to-end pipeline and outperformed the existing transformer models and most state-of-the-art solutions. Our model achieved F1-scores of 97%±0.0 and 99.55%±0.39 from the testing sets for the rs-fMRI and sMRI modalities in the triple-class prediction experiments. Furthermore, our model reached these performances using 30% fewer parameters than a vanilla transformer. Furthermore, the model was robust and repeatable, producing similar estimates across three runs with random data splits (we reported the averaged evaluation metrics). Finally, to challenge the model, we observed how it handled increasing noise levels by inserting varying numbers of healthy brains into the two dementia groups. Our findings suggest that optimized vision transformers are a promising and exciting new approach for neuroimaging applications, especially for Alzheimer's disease prediction.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a degenerative disorder that leads to progressive, irreversible cognitive decline. To obtain an accurate and timely diagnosis and detect AD at an early stage, numerous approaches based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) using neuroimaging data have been proposed. Because 3D CNNs can extract more spatial discrimination information than 2D CNNs, they have emerged as a promising research direction in the diagnosis of AD. The aim of this article is to present the current state of the art in the diagnosis of AD using 3D CNN models and neuroimaging modalities, focusing on the 3D CNN architectures and classification methods used, and to highlight potential future research topics. To give the reader a better overview of the content mentioned in this review, we briefly introduce the commonly used imaging datasets and the fundamentals of CNN architectures. Then we carefully analyzed the existing studies on AD diagnosis, which are divided into two levels according to their inputs: 3D subject-level CNNs and 3D patch-level CNNs, highlighting their contributions and significance in the field. In addition, this review discusses the key findings and challenges from the studies and highlights the lessons learned as a roadmap for future research. Finally, we summarize the paper by presenting some major findings, identifying open research challenges, and pointing out future research directions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a transitional state between normal aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD), and accurately predicting the progression trend of MCI is critical to the early prevention and treatment of AD. Brain structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI), as one of the most important biomarkers for the diagnosis of AD, has been applied in various deep learning models. However, due to the inherent disadvantage of deep learning in dealing with longitudinal medical image data, few applications of deep learning for longitudinal analysis of MCI, and the majority of existing deep learning algorithms for MCI progress prediction rely on the analysis of the sMRI images collected at a single time-point, ignoring the progressive nature of the disorder. METHODS In this work, we propose a VGG-TSwinformer model based on convolutional neural network (CNN) and Transformer for short-term longitudinal study of MCI. In this model, VGG-16 based CNN is used to extract low-level spatial features of longitudinal sMRI images and map these low-level features to high-level feature representations, sliding-window attention is used for fine-grained fusion of spatially adjacent feature representations, and gradually fuses distant spatial feature representations through the superposition of attention windows of different sizes, temporal attention is used to measure the evolution of this feature representations as a result of disease progression. RESULTS We validated our model on the ADNI dataset. For the classification task of sMCI vs pMCI, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and AUC reached 77.2%, 79.97%, 71.59% and 0.8153 respectively. Compared with other cross-sectional studies also applied to sMRI, the proposed model achieved better results in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, and AUC. CONCLUSION The proposed VGG-TSwinformer is a deep learning model for short-term longitudinal study of MCI, which can build brain atrophy progression model from longitudinal sMRI images, and improve diagnostic efficiency compared to algorithms using only cross-sectional sMRI images.

Abstract
Progressive brain atrophy is a key neuropathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia. However, atrophy patterns along the progression of AD dementia are diffuse and variable and are often missed by univariate methods. Consequently, identifying the major regional atrophy patterns underlying AD dementia progression is challenging. In the current study, we propose a method that evaluates the degree to which specific regional atrophy patterns are predictive of AD dementia progression, while holding all other atrophy changes constant using a total sample of 334 subjects. We first trained a dense convolutional neural network model to differentiate individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) who progress to AD dementia versus those with a stable MCI diagnosis. Then, we retested the model multiple times, each time occluding different regions of interest (ROIs) from the model's testing set's input. We also validated this approach by occluding ROIs based on Braak's staging scheme. We found that the hippocampus, fusiform, and inferior temporal gyri were the strongest predictors of AD dementia progression, in agreement with established staging models. We also found that occlusion of limbic ROIs defined according to Braak stage III had the largest impact on the performance of the model. Our predictive model reveals the major regional patterns of atrophy predictive of AD dementia progression. These results highlight the potential for early diagnosis and stratification of individuals with prodromal AD dementia based on patterns of cortical atrophy, prior to interventional clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shunt malfunction is a common complication and often presents with hydrocephalus. While the diagnosis is often supported by radiographic studies, subtle changes in CSF volume may not be detectable on routine evaluation. The purpose of this study was to develop a novel automated volumetric software for evaluation of shunt failure in pediatric patients, especially in patients who may not manifest a significant change in their ventricular size. METHODS A single-institution retrospective review of shunted patients was conducted. Ventricular volume measurements were performed using manual and automated methods by three independent analysts. Manual measurements were produced using OsiriX software, whereas automated measurements were produced using the proprietary software. A p value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Twenty-two patients met the inclusion criteria (13 males, 9 females). Mean age of the cohort was 4.9 years (range 0.1-18 years). Average measured CSF volume was similar between the manual and automated methods (169.8 mL vs 172.5 mL, p = 0.56). However, the average time to generate results was significantly shorter with the automated algorithm compared to the manual method (2244 s vs 38.3 s, p < 0.01). In 3/5 symptomatic patients whose neuroimaging was interpreted as stable, the novel algorithm detected the otherwise radiographically undetectable CSF volume changes. CONCLUSION The automated software accurately measures the ventricular volumes in pediatric patients with hydrocephalus. The application of this technology is valuable in patients who present clinically without obvious radiographic changes. Future studies with larger cohorts are needed to validate our preliminary findings and further assess the utility of this technology.

Abstract
It is of great significance to apply deep learning for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this work, a novel tensorizing GAN with high-order pooling is proposed to assess mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and AD. By tensorizing a three-player cooperative game-based framework, the proposed model can benefit from the structural information of the brain. By incorporating the high-order pooling scheme into the classifier, the proposed model can make full use of the second-order statistics of holistic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). To the best of our knowledge, the proposed Tensor-train, High-order pooling and Semisupervised learning-based GAN (THS-GAN) is the first work to deal with classification on MR images for AD diagnosis. Extensive experimental results on Alzheimer's disease neuroimaging initiative (ADNI) data set are reported to demonstrate that the proposed THS-GAN achieves superior performance compared with existing methods, and to show that both tensor-train and high-order pooling can enhance classification performance. The visualization of generated samples also shows that the proposed model can generate plausible samples for semisupervised learning purpose.

Abstract
Hippocampus segmentation on magnetic resonance imaging is more significant for diagnosis, treatment and analyzing of neuropsychiatric disorders. Automatic segmentation is an active research field. Previous state-of-the-art hippocampus segmentation methods train their methods on healthy or Alzheimer’s disease patients from public datasets. It arises the question whether these methods are capable for recognizing the hippocampus in a different domain. Therefore, this study proposes a precise computational method for hippocampus segmentation from MRI of brain to assist physicians in the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (HCS-MRI-DAD-LBP). Initially, the input images are pre-processed by Trimmed mean filter for image quality enhancement. Then the pre-processed images are given to ROI detection, ROI detection utilizes Weber’s law which determines the luminance factor of the image. In the region extraction process, Chan–Vese active contour model (ACM) and level sets are used (UACM). Finally, local binary pattern (LBP) is utilized to remove the erroneous pixel that maximizes the segmentation accuracy. The proposed model is implemented in MATLAB, and its performance is analyzed with performance metrics, like precision, recall, mean, variance, standard deviation and disc similarity coefficient. The proposed HCS-MRI-DAD-LBP method attains in OASIS dataset provides high disc similarity coefficient of 12.64%, 10.11% and 1.03% compared with the existing methods, like HCS-DAS-MLT, HCS-DAS-RNN and HCS-DAS-GMM and in ADNI dataset provides high precision of 20%, 9.09% and 1.05% compared with existing methods like HCS-MRI-DAD-CNN-ADNI, HCS-MRI-DAD-MCNN-ADNI and HCS-MRI-DAD-CNN-RNN-ADNI, respectively.

Abstract
This study uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data to propose end-to-end learning implementing volumetric convolutional neural network (CNN) models for two binary classification tasks: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) vs. cognitively normal (CN) and stable mild cognitive impairment (sMCI) vs. AD. The baseline MP-RAGE T1 MR images of 245 AD patients and 229 with sMCI were obtained from the ADNI dataset, whereas 245 T1 MR images of CN people were obtained from the IXI dataset. All of the images were preprocessed in four steps: N4 bias field correction, denoising, brain extraction, and registration. End-to-end-learning-based deep CNNs were used to discern between different phases of AD. Eight CNN-based architectures were implemented and assessed. The DenseNet264 excelled in both types of classification, with 82.5% accuracy and 87.63% AUC for training and 81.03% accuracy for testing relating to the sMCI vs. AD and 100% accuracy and 100% AUC for training and 99.56% accuracy for testing relating to the AD vs. CN. Deep learning approaches based on CNN and end-to-end learning offer a strong tool for examining minute but complex properties in MR images which could aid in the early detection and prediction of Alzheimer’s disease in clinical settings.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most familiar type of dementia, is a severe concern in modern healthcare. Around 5.5 million people aged 65 and above have AD, and it is the sixth leading cause of mortality in the US. AD is an irreversible, degenerative brain disorder characterized by a loss of cognitive function and has no proven cure. Deep learning techniques have gained popularity in recent years, particularly in the domains of natural language processing and computer vision. Since 2014, these techniques have begun to achieve substantial consideration in AD diagnosis research, and the number of papers published in this arena is rising drastically. Deep learning techniques have been reported to be more accurate for AD diagnosis in comparison to conventional machine learning models.

Abstract
AbstractCorporate social responsibility (CSR) represents a form of international private business self-regulation that contributes to the social aims of a charitable, activist, or philanthropic nature through helping ethically based practices. The benefits from CSR like generating better public image, enhance in community support, enhance in market share, enhance in the satisfaction of the consumer, enhance in the exports, offering better quality services and products, and enhance in the productivity is not considered as the perception level consumers. This paper analyzes the effect of CSR activities on the fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) industries on the basis of the retention of the consumers of FMCG products. Initially, a questionnaire is prepared that consists of five categories. Each category is composed of more than ten questions. The information related to the questionnaire is obtained in the view of the professional students from Odisha. The customers are requested to fill the exact information as much as possible. Next, a higher-order statistical analysis is considered for realizing the behaviour of the categories. Additionally, the usage of deep learning called Optimized RNN (O-RNN) is used for predicting the customer retention in maintaining the CSR on FMCG industries. The improvement in the traditional RNN is done by optimizing the hidden neurons by the improved form of Sea Lion Optimization Algorithm (slno) called Modified slno (M-slno) with the intention of minimizing the error among the actual and the predicted outcome, hence it is called as O-RNN. The retention of the customers regarding the effect of CSR activities on FMCG companies and the benefits from CSR is investigated using the O-RNN prediction analysis against several traditional deep learning models as well as different statistical measures.

Abstract
With the advent of the fourth industrial revolution, the application of artificial intelligence in the manufacturing domain is becoming prevalent. Maintenance is one of the important activities in the manufacturing process, and it requires proper attention. To decrease maintenance costs and to attain sustainable operational management, Predictive Maintenance (PdM) has become important in industries. The principle of PdM is forecasting the next failure; thus, the respective maintenance is scheduled before the predicted failure occurs. In the construction of maintenance management, facility managers generally employ reactive or preventive maintenance mechanisms. However, reactive maintenance does not have the ability to prevent failure and preventive maintenance does not have the ability to predict the future condition of mechanical, electrical, or plumbing components. Therefore, to improve the facilities’ lifespans, such components are repaired in advance. In this paper, a PdM planning model is developed using intelligent methods. The developed method involves five main phases: (a) data cleaning, (b) data normalization, (c) optimal feature selection, (d) prediction network decision-making, and (e) prediction. Initially, the data pertaining to PdM are subjected to data cleaning and normalization in order to arrange the data within a particular limit. Optimal feature selection is performed next, to reduce redundant information. Optimal feature selection is performed using a hybrid of the Jaya algorithm and Sea Lion Optimization (SLnO). As the prediction values differ in range, it is difficult for machine learning or deep learning face to provide accurate results. Thus, a support vector machine (SVM) is used to make decisions regarding the prediction network. The SVM identifies the network in which prediction can be performed for the concerned range. Finally, the prediction is accomplished using a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). In the RNN, the weight is optimized using the hybrid J-SLnO. A comparative analysis demonstrates that the proposed model can efficiently predict the future condition of components for maintenance planning by using two datasets—aircraft engine and lithium-ion battery datasets.

Abstract
Email has sustained to be an essential part of our lives and as a means for better communication on the internet. The challenge pertains to the spam emails residing a large amount of space and bandwidth. The defect of state-of-the-art spam filtering methods like misclassification of genuine emails as spam (false positives) is the rising challenge to the internet world. Depending on the classification techniques, literature provides various algorithms for the classification of email spam. This paper tactics to develop a novel spam detection model for improved cybersecurity. The proposed model involves several phases like dataset acquisition, feature extraction, optimal feature selection, and detection. Initially, the benchmark dataset of email is collected that involves both text and image datasets. Next, the feature extraction is performed using two sets of features like text features and visual features. In the text features, Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) is extracted. For the visual features, color correlogram and Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) are determined. Since the length of the extracted feature vector seems to the long, the optimal feature selection process is done. The optimal feature selection is performed by a new meta-heuristic algorithm called Fitness Oriented Levy Improvement-based Dragonfly Algorithm (FLI-DA). Once the optimal features are selected, the detection is performed by the hybrid learning technique that is composed of two deep learning approaches named Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). For improving the performance of existing deep learning approaches, the number of hidden neurons of RNN and CNN is optimized by the same FLI-DA. Finally, the optimized hybrid learning technique having CNN and RNN classifies the data into spam and ham. The experimental outcomes show the ability of the proposed method to perform the spam email classification based on improved deep learning.

Abstract
The early prediction of Alzheimer's disease (AD) can be vital for the endurance of patients and establishes as an accommodating and facilitative factor for specialists. The proposed work presents a robotized predictive structure, dependent on machine learning (ML) methods for the forecast of AD. Neuropsychological measures (NM) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers are deduced and passed on to a recurrent neural network (RNN). In the RNN, we have used long short-term memory (LSTM), and the proposed model will predict the biomarkers (feature vectors) of patients after 6, 12, 21 18, 24, and 36 months. These predicted biomarkers will go through fully connected neural network layers. The NN layers will then predict whether these RNN-predicted biomarkers belong to an AD patient or a patient with a mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The developed methodology has been tried on an openly available informational dataset (ADNI) and accomplished an accuracy of 88.24%, which is superior to the next-best available algorithms.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. It is one of the leading sources of morbidity and mortality in the aging population AD cardinal symptoms include memory and executive function impairment that profoundly alters a patient’s ability to perform activities of daily living. People with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) exhibit many of the early clinical symptoms of patients with AD and have a high chance of converting to AD in their lifetime. Diagnostic criteria rely on clinical assessment and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Many groups are working to help automate this process to improve the clinical workflow. Current computational approaches are focused on predicting whether or not a subject with MCI will convert to AD in the future. To our knowledge, limited attention has been given to the development of automated computer-assisted diagnosis (CAD) systems able to provide an AD conversion diagnosis in MCI patient cohorts followed longitudinally. This is important as these CAD systems could be used by primary care providers to monitor patients with MCI. The method outlined in this paper addresses this gap and presents a computationally efficient pre-processing and prediction pipeline, and is designed for recognizing patterns associated with AD conversion. We propose a new approach that leverages longitudinal data that can be easily acquired in a clinical setting (e.g., T1-weighted magnetic resonance images, cognitive tests, and demographic information) to identify the AD conversion point in MCI subjects with AUC = 84.7. In contrast, cognitive tests and demographics alone achieved AUC = 80.6, a statistically significant difference (n = 669, p < 0.05). We designed a convolutional neural network that is computationally efficient and requires only linear registration between imaging time points. The model architecture combines Attention and Inception architectures while utilizing both cross-sectional and longitudinal imaging and clinical information. Additionally, the top brain regions and clinical features that drove the model’s decision were investigated. These included the thalamus, caudate, planum temporale, and the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test. We believe our method could be easily translated into the healthcare setting as an objective AD diagnostic tool for patients with MCI.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a remarkable challenge for healthcare in the 21st century. Since 2017, deep learning models with transfer learning approaches have been gaining recognition in AD detection, and progression prediction by using neuroimaging biomarkers. This paper presents a systematic review of the current state of early AD detection by using deep learning models with transfer learning and neuroimaging biomarkers. Five databases were used and the results before screening report 215 studies published between 2010 and 2020. After screening, 13 studies met the inclusion criteria. We noted that the maximum accuracy achieved to date for AD classification is 98.20% by using the combination of 3D convolutional networks and local transfer learning, and that for the prognostic prediction of AD is 87.78% by using pre-trained 3D convolutional network-based architectures. The results show that transfer learning helps researchers in developing a more accurate system for the early diagnosis of AD. However, there is a need to consider some points in future research, such as improving the accuracy of the prognostic prediction of AD, exploring additional biomarkers such as tau-PET and amyloid-PET to understand highly discriminative feature representation to separate similar brain patterns, managing the size of the datasets due to the limited availability.

Abstract
PurposeGene selection is considered as the fundamental process in the bioinformatics field. The existing methodologies pertain to cancer classification are mostly clinical basis, and its diagnosis capability is limited. Nowadays, the significant problems of cancer diagnosis are solved by the utilization of gene expression data. The researchers have been introducing many possibilities to diagnose cancer appropriately and effectively. This paper aims to develop the cancer data classification using gene expression data.Design/methodology/approachThe proposed classification model involves three main phases: “(1) Feature extraction, (2) Optimal Feature Selection and (3) Classification”. Initially, five benchmark gene expression datasets are collected. From the collected gene expression data, the feature extraction is performed. To diminish the length of the feature vectors, optimal feature selection is performed, for which a new meta-heuristic algorithm termed as quantum-inspired immune clone optimization algorithm (QICO) is used. Once the relevant features are selected, the classification is performed by a deep learning model called recurrent neural network (RNN). Finally, the experimental analysis reveals that the proposed QICO-based feature selection model outperforms the other heuristic-based feature selection and optimized RNN outperforms the other machine learning methods.FindingsThe proposed QICO-RNN is acquiring the best outcomes at any learning percentage. On considering the learning percentage 85, the accuracy of the proposed QICO-RNN was 3.2% excellent than RNN, 4.3% excellent than RF, 3.8% excellent than NB and 2.1% excellent than KNN for Dataset 1. For Dataset 2, at learning percentage 35, the accuracy of the proposed QICO-RNN was 13.3% exclusive than RNN, 8.9% exclusive than RF and 14.8% exclusive than NB and KNN. Hence, the developed QICO algorithm is performing well in classifying the cancer data using gene expression data accurately.Originality/valueThis paper introduces a new optimal feature selection model using QICO and QICO-based RNN for effective classification of cancer data using gene expression data. This is the first work that utilizes an optimal feature selection model using QICO and QICO-RNN for effective classification of cancer data using gene expression data.

Abstract
Purpose
The aim of continuous learning is to obtain and fine-tune information gradually without removing the already existing information. Many conventional approaches in streaming data classification assume that all arrived new data is completely labeled. To regularize Neural Networks (NNs) by merging side information like user-provided labels or pair-wise constraints, incremental semi-supervised learning models need to be introduced. However, they are hard to implement, specifically in non-stationary environments because of the efficiency and sensitivity of such algorithms to parameters. The periodic update and maintenance of the decision method is the significant challenge in incremental algorithms whenever the new data arrives.
Design/methodology/approach
Hence, this paper plans to develop the meta-learning model for handling continuous or streaming data. Initially, the data pertain to continuous behavior is gathered from diverse benchmark source. Further, the classification of the data is performed by the Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), in which testing weight is adjusted or optimized by the new meta-heuristic algorithm. Here, the weight is updated for reducing the error difference between the target and the measured data when new data is given for testing. The optimized weight updated testing is performed by evaluating the concept-drift and classification accuracy. The new continuous learning by RNN is accomplished by the improved Opposition-based Novel Updating Spotted Hyena Optimization (ONU-SHO). Finally, the experiments with different datasets show that the proposed learning is improved over the conventional models.
Findings
From the analysis, the accuracy of the ONU-SHO based RNN (ONU-SHO-RNN) was 10.1% advanced than Decision Tree (DT), 7.6% advanced than Naive Bayes (NB), 7.4% advanced than k-nearest neighbors (KNN), 2.5% advanced than Support Vector Machine (SVM) 9.3% advanced than NN, and 10.6% advanced than RNN. Hence, it is confirmed that the ONU-SHO algorithm is performing well for acquiring the best data stream classification.
Originality/value
This paper introduces a novel meta-learning model using Opposition-based Novel Updating Spotted Hyena Optimization (ONU-SHO)-based Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) for handling continuous or streaming data. This is the first work utilizes a novel meta-learning model using Opposition-based Novel Updating Spotted Hyena Optimization (ONU-SHO)-based Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) for handling continuous or streaming data.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has been studied extensively to understand the nature of this complex disease and address the many research gaps concerning prognosis and diagnosis. Several studies based on structural and textural characteristics have already been conducted to aid in identifying AD patients. In this work, an image processing methodology was used to extract textural information and classify the patients into two groups: AD and Cognitively Normal (CN). The Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) was employed since it is a strong foundation for texture classification. Various textural parameters derived from the GLCM aided in deciphering the characteristics of a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) region of interest (ROI). Several commonly used image classification algorithms were employed. MATLAB was used to successfully derive 20 features based on the GLCM of the MRI dataset. Based on the data analysis, 8 of the 20 features were determined as significant elements. Ensemble (90.2%), Decision Trees (88.5%), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) (87.2%) were the best performing classifiers. It was observed in GLCM that as the distance (d) between pixels increased, the classification accuracy decreased. The best result was observed for GLCM with d = 1 and direction (d, d, −d) with age and structural data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aluminum is a neurotoxic element that can accumulate in the brain and cause neurodegenerative disorders. In addition, the antioxidants found in pomegranate juice (PJ) are much more than those existing in other fruits. It was proven to provide protection against neurodegenerative diseases. OBJECTIVES This experiment aimed to clarify the amelioration efficiency of PJ against aluminum chloride-induced neurobehavioral and biochemical disorders in female mice. METHODS The female mice were given oral administrations for 35 days as follows. The control group received tap water, the PJ groups received 20% and 40% pomegranate juice, the aluminum chloride (AlCl3) group was treated with 400 mg/kg AlCl3, and the last two groups received AlCl3 + 20% PJ and AlCl3 + 40% PJ, respectively. The neurobehavioral features were assessed by shuttle box, T-maze, and Morris water maze devices. Furthermore, the neurotransmitters and oxidative indicators in the brains of the female mice were determined at the end of experiment. RESULTS Significant effects of AlCl3 were observed on female mice in the body weight, during the behavioral tasks (shuttle box, T-maze, and Morris water maze), and in neurotransmitters and oxidative stress parameters. Pomegranate juice, especially at low concentrations, induced remarkable improvements in body weight, spatial memory and learning during T-maze, Morris water maze and shuttle box tasks, as well as in neurotransmitters and oxidative biomarkers in the AlCl3-treated female mice. CONCLUSION PJ reversed AlCl3-induced neurotoxicity and improved learning and memory in female mice. However, PJ contains a group of antioxidants that may be considered double-edged swords in the cellular redox status especially at high doses.

Abstract
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is often considered the precursor of Alzheimer's disease. However, MCI is associated with substantially variable progression rates, which are not well understood. Attempts to identify the mechanisms that underlie MCI progression have often focused on the hippocampus but have mostly overlooked its intricate structure and subdivisions. Here, we utilized deep learning to delineate the contribution of hippocampal subfields to MCI progression. We propose a dense convolutional neural network architecture that differentiates stable and progressive MCI based on hippocampal morphometry with an accuracy of 75.85%. A novel implementation of occlusion analysis revealed marked differences in the contribution of hippocampal subfields to the performance of the model, with presubiculum, CA1, subiculum, and molecular layer showing the most central role. Moreover, the analysis reveals that 10.5% of the volume of the hippocampus was redundant in the differentiation between stable and progressive MCI.

Alzheimers Res Ther 2021; 13:104. [PMID: 34030743 PMCID: PMC8147046 DOI: 10.1186/s13195-021-00837-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2020] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive and irreversible brain disorder. Hippocampus is one of the involved regions and its atrophy is a widely used biomarker for AD diagnosis. We have recently developed DenseCNN, a lightweight 3D deep convolutional network model, for AD classification based on hippocampus magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) segments. In addition to the visual features of the hippocampus segments, the global shape representations of the hippocampus are also important for AD diagnosis. In this study, we propose DenseCNN2, a deep convolutional network model for AD classification by incorporating global shape representations along with hippocampus segmentations. METHODS The data was obtained from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) and was T1-weighted structural MRI from initial screening or baseline, including ADNI 1,2/GO and 3. DenseCNN2 was trained and evaluated with 326 AD subjects and 607 CN hippocampus MRI using 5-fold cross-validation strategy. DenseCNN2 was compared with other state-of-the-art machine learning approaches for the task of AD classification. RESULTS We showed that DenseCNN2 with combined visual and global shape features performed better than deep learning models with visual or global shape features alone. DenseCNN2 achieved an average accuracy of 0.925, sensitivity of 0.882, specificity of 0.949, and area under curve (AUC) of 0.978, which are better than or comparable to the state-of-the-art methods in AD classification. Data visualization analysis through 2D embedding of UMAP confirmed that global shape features improved class discrimination between AD and normal. CONCLUSION DenseCNN2, a lightweight 3D deep convolutional network model based on combined hippocampus segmentations and global shape features, achieved high performance and has potential as an efficient diagnostic tool for AD classification.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a transitional stage between normal control (NC) and AD. A multiclass classification of AD is a difficult task because there are multiple similarities between neighboring groups. The performance of classification can be improved by using multimodal data, but the improvement could be limited with inefficient fusion of multimodal data. This study aims to develop a framework for AD multiclass diagnosis with a linear discriminant analysis (LDA) scoring method to fuse multimodal data more efficiently. Magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers, and genetic features were first preprocessed by performing age correction, feature selection, and feature reduction. Then, they were individually scored using LDA, and the scores that represent the AD pathological progress in different modalities were obtained. Finally, an extreme learning machine-based decision tree was established to perform multiclass diagnosis using these scores. The experiments were conducted on the AD Neuroimaging Initiative dataset, and accuracies of 66.7% and 57.3% and F1-scores of 64.9% and 55.7% were achieved in three- and four-way classifications, respectively. The results also showed that the proposed framework achieved a better performance than the method that did not score multimodal data and the methods in previous studies, thereby indicating that the LDA scoring strategy is an efficient way for multimodalities fusion in AD multiclass classification.

Abstract
Lumbar spondylolisthesis (LS) is the anterior shift of one of the lower vertebrae about the subjacent vertebrae. There are several symptoms to define LS, and these symptoms are not detected in the early stages of LS. This leads to disease progress further without being identified. Thus, advanced treatment mechanisms are required to implement for diagnosing LS, which is crucial in terms of early diagnosis, rehabilitation, and treatment planning. Herein, a transfer learning-based CNN model is developed that uses only lumbar X-rays. The model was trained with 1922 images, and 187 images were used for validation. Later, the model was tested with 598 images. During training, the model extracts the region of interests (ROIs) via Yolov3, and then the ROIs are split into training and validation sets. Later, the ROIs are fed into the fine-tuned MobileNet CNN to accomplish the training. However, during testing, the images enter the model, and then they are classified as spondylolisthesis or normal. The end-to-end transfer learning-based CNN model reached the test accuracy of 99%, whereas the test sensitivity was 98% and the test specificity 99%. The performance results are encouraging and state that the model can be used in outpatient clinics where any experts are not present.

Abstract
Big data and its approaches are generally helpful for healthcare and biomedical sectors for predicting the disease. For trivial symptoms, the difficulty is to meet the doctors at any time in the hospital. Thus, big data provides essential data regarding the diseases on the basis of the patient's symptoms. For several medical organizations, disease prediction is important for making the best feasible health care decisions. Conversely, the conventional medical care model offers input as structured that requires more accurate and consistent prediction. This paper is planned to develop the multi-disease prediction using the improvised deep learning concept. Here, the different datasets pertain to "Diabetes, Hepatitis, lung cancer, liver tumor, heart disease, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease", from the benchmark UCI repository is gathered for conducting the experiment. The proposed model involves three phases (a) Data normalization (b) Weighted normalized feature extraction, and (c) prediction. Initially, the dataset is normalized in order to make the attribute's range at a certain level. Further, weighted feature extraction is performed, in which a weight function is multiplied with each attribute value for making large scale deviation. Here, the weight function is optimized using the combination of two meta-heuristic algorithms termed as Jaya Algorithm-based Multi-Verse Optimization algorithm (JA-MVO). The optimally extracted features are subjected to the hybrid deep learning algorithms like "Deep Belief Network (DBN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)". As a modification to hybrid deep learning architecture, the weight of both DBN and RNN is optimized using the same hybrid optimization algorithm. Further, the comparative evaluation of the proposed prediction over the existing models certifies its effectiveness through various performance measures.

Abstract
In this paper, it is proposed to understand the opinion of the public regarding the policy of demonetization that is implemented recently in India through Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) that predicts the sentiment of specific aspects present in the text. The major aim is to identify the relevant contexts for various aspects. Most of the conventional techniques have adopted attention mechanisms and deep learning concepts that decrease the prediction accuracy and generate huge noise. Another major disadvantage with the attention mechanisms is that the sentiment related to few context words alters with various aspects, and hence it cannot be concluded from itself alone. This paper adopts the optimized deep learning concept for performing the ABSA for demonetization tweets. The proposed model involves various phases such as pre-processing, aspect extraction, polarity feature extraction, and sentiment classification. Initially, the different demonetization tweets collected from the Kaggle dataset are taken. Pre-processing is done with the help of four phases like stop words removal, punctuation removal, lower case conversion, and stemming from minimizing the data to its reduced format. This pre-processed data is further performed with aspect extraction to extract the opinion words. These extracted aspect words are converted to the features with the help of polarity score computation and Word2vec. The weight of the polarity scores is optimized using hybridization of two meta-heuristic algorithms like FireFly Algorithm (FF), and Multi-Verse Optimization (MVO), and the new algorithm is termed as Fire Fly-oriented Multi-Verse Optimizer (FF-MVO). Further, combined features are subjected to a deep learning algorithm called Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). As a modification to the existing RNN, the hidden neurons are optimized by the hybrid FF-MVO, FF-MVO-RNN classifies the positive and negative sentiments. Finally, the comparative analysis of different machine learning algorithms proves the competent performance of the proposed model.

Melatonin Rescues the Dendrite Collapse Induced by the Pro-Oxidant Toxin Okadaic Acid in Organotypic Cultures of Rat Hilar Hippocampus. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25235508.

Abstract
The pro-oxidant compound okadaic acid (OKA) mimics alterations found in Alzheimer's disease (AD) as oxidative stress and tau hyperphosphorylation, leading to neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Although loss of dendrite complexity occurs in AD, the study of this post-synaptic domain in chemical-induced models remains unexplored. Moreover, there is a growing expectation for therapeutic adjuvants to counteract these brain dysfunctions. Melatonin, a free-radical scavenger, inhibits tau hyperphosphorylation, modulates phosphatases, and strengthens dendritic arbors. Thus, we determined if OKA alters the dendritic arbors of hilar hippocampal neurons and whether melatonin prevents, counteracts, or reverses these damages. Rat organotypic cultures were incubated with vehicle, OKA, melatonin, and combined treatments with melatonin either before, simultaneously, or after OKA. DNA breaks were assessed by TUNEL assay and nuclei were counterstained with DAPI. Additionally, MAP2 was immunostained to assess the dendritic arbor properties by the Sholl method. In hippocampal hilus, OKA increased DNA fragmentation and reduced the number of MAP2(+) cells, whereas melatonin protected against oxidation and apoptosis. Additionally, OKA decreased the dendritic arbor complexity and melatonin not only counteracted, but also prevented and reversed the dendritic arbor retraction, highlighting its role in post-synaptic domain integrity preservation against neurodegenerative events in hippocampal neurons.

Abstract
Data classification has been considered extensively in different fields, such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, and data mining, and the expansion of classification has yielded immense achievements. The automatic classification of maintenance data has been investigated over the past few decades owing to its usefulness in construction and facility management. To utilize automated data classification in the maintenance field, a data classification model is implemented in this study based on the analysis of different mechanical maintenance data. The developed model involves four main steps: (a) data acquisition, (b) feature extraction, (c) feature selection, and (d) classification. During data acquisition, four types of dataset are collected from the benchmark Google datasets. The attributes of each dataset are further processed for classification. Principal component analysis and first-order and second-order statistical features are computed during the feature extraction process. To reduce the dimensions of the features for error-free classification, feature selection was performed. The hybridization of two algorithms, the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and Spotted Hyena Optimization (SHO), tends to produce a new algorithm—i.e., a Spotted Hyena-based Whale Optimization Algorithm (SH-WOA), which is adopted for performing feature selection. The selected features are subjected to a deep learning algorithm called Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). To enhance the efficiency of conventional RNNs, the number of hidden neurons in an RNN is optimized using the developed SH-WOA. Finally, the efficacy of the proposed model is verified utilizing the entire dataset. Experimental results show that the developed model can effectively solve uncertain data classification, which minimizes the execution time and enhances efficiency.
