Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is a degenerative disease in which brain cells die and deteriorate. It is the most prevalent reason for dementia, which is defined as a progressive decrease in thinking, conduct, and social skills that impairs a person's capacity to operate independently. Although it is fatal the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's can be extremely helpful. Our main aim is to help with the diagnosis of this disease in its early stages using the VGG16 classifier which is a convolutional neural network (CNN) that is 16 layers deep. The dataset consists of MRI images of the brain. Data augmentation is done to significantly increase the diversity of data available and Data pre-processing helps to enhance the overall truthfulness of the proposed approach.
期刊介绍:
The Malaysian Journal of Computer Science (ISSN 0127-9084) is published four times a year in January, April, July and October by the Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology, University of Malaya, since 1985. Over the years, the journal has gained popularity and the number of paper submissions has increased steadily. The rigorous reviews from the referees have helped in ensuring that the high standard of the journal is maintained. The objectives are to promote exchange of information and knowledge in research work, new inventions/developments of Computer Science and on the use of Information Technology towards the structuring of an information-rich society and to assist the academic staff from local and foreign universities, business and industrial sectors, government departments and academic institutions on publishing research results and studies in Computer Science and Information Technology through a scholarly publication. The journal is being indexed and abstracted by Clarivate Analytics'' Web of Science and Elsevier''s Scopus
