Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects the life quality of millions of people worldwide. To diagnose new cases in a timely manner, we propose a new novelty detection technique that combines Autoencoder and Minimum Covariance Determinant (MCD). The technique consists of two steps: first, we use an Autoencoder to extract low-dimensional and discriminative features from the publicly available ADNI dataset, where we only train the Autoencoder with normal data, making the abnormal data more distinguishable in the feature space; second, based on the features of normal data, we use MCD to construct a decision boundary, and judge the degree of abnormality by the distance of the test point to the boundary. Compared with traditional methods without using Autoencoder, our technique has significant advantages in terms of accuracy and sensitivity, and can effectively deal with data imbalance problem. Experimental results show that our method can efficiently detect novel AD cases, and has a wide range of application prospects.
