Prediction of tau accumulation in prodromal Alzheimer’s disease using an ensemble machine learning approach
Abstract We developed machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict abnormal tau accumulation among patients with prodromal AD. We recruited 64 patients with prodromal AD using the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) dataset. Supervised ML approaches based on the random forest (RF) and...
