A Hybrid Multi-Class Classification of Alzheimer Disease Based on OperativeDeep Learning Techniques: Xception-Fractalnet
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a type of dementia that affects
people as they get older and is one of the most frequent memory depletion diseases. Early-stage AD
identification is essential for preventing and intervening the
disease development. But
it is a
challenging task due
to the complex
structure of brain
and its functions. Hence,
the research on
AD has increased
recently. Therefore in
this paper, an
effective hybrid Xception and
Fractalnet based deep learning framework is
implemented to classify
the stages of
AD into five classes. To increase the performance of
the classifier, effective pre-processing methods and Unet++ based
segmentation technique are applied on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images
gathered from ADNI dataset. The
performance of the
proposed approach is analysed
based on Recall,
precision and accuracy
metrics. The investigation results
shows that the
proposed technique have
the capacity to
attain 98.30% recall,
99.72% precision, and 99.06%
accuracy in multiclass
classification. The results indicate
that the proposed
techniques combined with MRI images can be utilized to categorize
forecast neurodegenerative brain illnesses like AD.
