Machine learning for early diagnosis of senile dementia

Dementia characterized by cognitive and intellectual impairment is a kind of neurodegenerative diseases[1]. Dementia diagnosis is a critical issue since it affects 47.5 million people worldwide according to World Health Organization[2]. Using machine learning and deep learning in artificial intelligence, we have developed several clinical tools for early diagnosis of senile dementia. Please read the following papers for details.
