Abstract

Alzheimer’s Disease is a severe neurological brain disorder. It destroys brain cells causing people to lose their memory, mental functions and ability to continue daily activities. Alzheimer’s Disease is not curable, but earlier detection can help improve symptoms in a great deal. Machine learning techniques can vastly improve the process for accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease. In recent days deep learning techniques have achieved major success in medical image analysis. But relatively little investigation has been done to applying deep learning techniques for Alzheimer’s Disease detection and classification. This paper presents a novel deep learning model for multi-Class Alzheimer’s Disease detection and classification using Brain MRI Data. We design a very deep convolutional network and demonstrate the performance on the Open Access Series of Imaging Studies (OASIS) database.
