Deep learning model built on neuroimaging data identifies “Brain Age Gaps” as markers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD)
Brain Age Gap is a Composite Biomarker for Dementia Pathology or Severity (GEN): Mayo Clinic scientists have developed a computational model that predicts brain age using a large collection of neuroimaging data obtained using FDG-PET (fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography) and structural MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). The deep learning-based model tests the relationship between brain age…
Read MoreStudy: Wearable sensors and machine learning may well (one day) help detect a broad range of epileptic seizures
Wearable Device Clears a First ‘Milestone’ in Seizure Detection (Medscape; requires subscription): A wrist-worn device that uses machine learning accurately detects different seizure types in findings that have the potential to revolutionize the management of patients with epilepsy. “We have set a first benchmark for automatic detection of a variety of epileptic seizures using wearable…

___ A Quarter Million Gamers Helped Build This Incredibly Detailed Map of the Brain (SingularityHub): “In 2012, when Angry Birds was in its prime, Seung had an inspiration. “What if,” he wondered, “we could capture even a small fraction of the mental effort that goes into Angry Birds (for brain mapping)? Think of what we…
