Owing to Alzheimer's disease's high cost, a number of deep learning-based models have been put out to accurately identify the illness. This study introduces a new way to classify Alzheimer's disease using deep learning and combining different types of features. The 3D lightweight MBANet developed in this research has less parameters and can concentrate on more discriminative deep structures than conventional artificial neural networks like CNN, according to experimental data. We first create a Multi-Branch Attention Network (MBANet) to gather detailed features of the hippocampus from large sets of data. A new method is created to capture texture features in the hippocampus. It uses two techniques: multi-Tree Wavelet Transform (MTWT) and Gray Length Matrix (GLM). This method works in three dimensions and at different scales. Also, standard methods are used to measure the size and shape of the hippocampus. A mixed feature fusion network is created to simplify and combine data from the hippocampus, helping to classify Alzheimer's disease more effectively.

To enhance sleep stage classification without relying on traditional polysomnography (PSG) systems, we propose a novel approach integrating single-channel electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, heart rate variability (HRV) features, and tNIR stimulation. The maximal overlap discrete wavelet transform (MODWT) is applied for multi-resolution analysis of ECG signals, followed by peak information extraction. Based on the first-order deviation of peak positions, multi-dimensional HRV features are extracted. To identify HRV features strongly associated with different sleep stages, we introduce a feature selection method combining the ReliefF algorithm and Gini index. The selected features are then processed using the INFO-ABC Logit Boost method to establish correlations between HRV dynamics and sleep stages. Experimental results on publicly available datasets demonstrate that the proposed model achieves an overall accuracy of 83.67%, a precision of 82.59%, a Kappa coefficient of 77.94%, and an F1-score of 82.97%.

Typically, the control group is characterised using standard Normal statistics, and the detection of a single abnormal subject is in that context. However, in many situations, the control group cannot be described by Normal statistics, making standard statistical methods inappropriate. This paper presents a Bayesian Inference General Procedures for A Single-subject Test (BIGPAST) designed to mitigate the effects of skewness under the assumption that the dataset of the control group comes from the skewed Student <em>t</em> distribution. BIGPAST operates under the null hypothesis that the single-subject follows the same distribution as the control group. We assess BIGPAST's performance against other methods through simulation studies. The results demonstrate that BIGPAST is robust against deviations from normality and outperforms the existing approaches in accuracy, nearest to the nominal accuracy 0.95.

Early detection of asphyxia is crucial for reducing infant mortality rates. Traditional medical diagnosis methods can be time-consuming, whereas early detection through artificial intelligence (AI) can expedite the process and improve survival rates. Despite the importance of early asphyxia detection, existing methods are often delayed and not always effective. This research addresses the need for a faster, more accurate approach to detecting infant asphyxia using machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques. This study aims to develop a robust AI-driven system to detect asphyxia in newborns using ML and DL models, focusing on improving accuracy and efficiency over traditional diagnostic methods. This study explores feature extraction using Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs), where the features are categorized into time and frequency domains. Data preprocessing techniques, such as noise removal, handling missing values, outliers, and label encoding, are applied to ensure clean data. To address class imbalance, the Random Oversampling (ROS) technique is employed. Hyperparameter optimization is performed using GridSearchCV for various machine-learning models. Deep learning models, including custom artificial neural networks (ANN1) and convolutional neural networks (CNN1, CNN2), are introduced with hidden layers for improved performance. The performance of different ML and DL models is evaluated, with Logistic Regression (LR) achieving an accuracy of 99.16% and a 0.008% error rate. In comparison, ANN1 outperforms other DL models with an accuracy of 98.20% and a 0.018% error rate. The results demonstrate that both ML and DL techniques can significantly enhance early asphyxia detection in newborns. The Logistic Regression model offers the highest accuracy in machine learning, while ANN1 performs optimally in deep learning, suggesting their potential for deployment in clinical settings to improve neonatal care.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":74295,"journal":{"name":"Neuroscience informatics","volume":"5 2","pages":"Article 100193"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143478679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address the multifactorial nature of cognitive impairment in PD, this study proposes a neuroscience-informed nomogram model constructed using multivariate logistic regression.

Furthermore, the model provides visual comparisons of patient distributions across different predictor values, enabling personalized risk assessments. According to experimental analysis and verification, the model demonstrated outstanding prediction with a region under the ROC curve of 0.872 on the original training set and 0.870 on the validation set.
