Ensemble deep learning models enhance early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease using neuroimaging data

A recent Nature Mental Health study assessed the developments in ensemble deep learning (EDL) models used to characterize and estimate AD. Study: Ensemble deep learning for Alzheimer’s disease characterization and estimation. Image Credit: SewCreamStudio/Shutterstock.om Ensemble deep learning EDL combines the outputs of several machine learning (ML) models to enhance their generalization performance. The traditional approach to building an ensemble uses deep neural networks (DNNs) in a classical ensemble learning framework. EDL can overcome challenges related to unequal class distributions, small …
