Alzheimer’s and related diseases are significant health issues of this era. The interdisciplinary use of deep learning in this field has shown great promise and gathered considerable interest. This paper surveys deep learning literature related to Alzheimer’s disease, mild cognitive impairment, and related diseases from 2010 to early 2023. We identify the major types of unsupervised, supervised, and semi-supervised methods developed for various tasks in this field, including the most recent developments, such as the application of recurrent neural networks, graph-neural networks, and generative models. We also provide a summary of data sources, data processing, training protocols, and evaluation methods as a guide for future deep learning research into Alzheimer’s disease. Although deep learning has shown promising performance across various studies and tasks, it is limited by interpretation and generalization challenges. The survey also provides a brief insight into these challenges and the possible pathways for future studies.
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder worldwide, affecting approximately 56.9 million people in 2021 and projected to reach 152 million by 2050. Its defining pathological features, amyloid-beta plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, accumulate fo…
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a pressing global issue, demanding effective diagnostic approaches. This systematic review surveys the recent literature (2018 onwards) to illuminate the current landscape of AD detection via deep learning. Focusing on neuroimaging, this study explores…
Human activity recognition (HAR) remains an essential field of research with increasing real-world applications ranging from healthcare to industrial environments. As the volume of publications in this domain continues to grow, staying abreast of the most pertinent and innovative…
Traditional methods of agricultural disease detection rely primarily on manual observation, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to human error. The advent of deep learning has revolutionized plant disease detection by providing more accurate and e…
