ABSTRACT

The medical diagnosis of diseases involves the detection and classification of patients from medical image data. It has an important Artificial Intelligence (AI) application in Healthcare and Neuroscience fields. In addition, Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) techniques provide important tasks on Neurodegenerative Diseases (ND) diagnosis from Brain MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) data for image processing with good classification results. This chapter aims at comprehensive and comparative study on the performance of medical image classification with those techniques using Brain MRI datasets. We introduce a brief overview of the medical diagnosis of ND with AI applications in the neuroscience domain. In the literature part, we present the understanding of the medical image classification with Machine and Deep Learning techniques. Therefore, we describe the concept of MRI data and the Brain MRI datasets that are used in this work. In the comparison part, we focus on related works of the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and the Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) models and we compare these models in the literature. In the methodology part, we combine the ANN and DCNN in order to propose a new Deep model named ANN-DCNN model when it is more accurate and effective to classify from those Brain images. To improve the performance of those Neural Networks in medical diagnosis applications, we discuss the recent insights and future directions.
