Abstract (expanded):
This article introduces a novel hybrid deep learning architecture designed to enhance the classification of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) through the integration of adaptive feature fusion. The model combines both global and local features from neuroimaging data, optimizing classification performance across multiple stages of Alzheimer’s disease. The study leverages convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to process and fuse brain images for a more accurate disease diagnosis and staging. By enhancing feature extraction with adaptive fusion techniques, the architecture outperforms traditional methods in terms of accuracy and reliability.

Key Contributions:

  1. Hybrid Model Design: The integration of CNNs for feature extraction and RNNs for sequence learning provides a comprehensive framework for Alzheimer’s classification.

  2. Adaptive Feature Fusion: The study proposes a dynamic fusion strategy that adapts to various stages of the disease, improving classification precision.

  3. Stage-Specific Diagnosis: The model successfully categorizes Alzheimer’s at different stages, addressing the clinical challenge of early-stage detection.

Impact & Relevance:
This work is a significant step forward in the use of AI for medical diagnostics, particularly for neurodegenerative diseases. The proposed model has the potential to aid clinicians in diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease at earlier stages, leading to better patient outcomes. It highlights the growing role of deep learning in medical image analysis and opens doors for future research on hybrid architectures in healthcare.
