Using AI to track cognitive deviation in aging brains

Researchers use AI to track cognitive deviation in aging brains
Flowchart showing the framework of the brain age prediction model. A, The imaging data were split into training and test datasets. The training dataset consisted of structural magnetic resonance imaging data from 974 healthy individuals, whereas the test dataset included data from 2 groups, 231 healthy controls and 224 aMCI subjects. B, A Conventional Statistical Parametric Mapping structural preprocessing pipeline was used to generate GMV maps in the MNI space. C, The intensity values from the GMV maps were extracted and concatenated to create a feature matrix that was then cleaned and normalized. D, The best elastic net model was obtained by performing supervised learning on the training dataset. To optimize the hyperparameters, a grid search was performed. E, The test dataset was input into the trained model….
