Researchers have developed a machine learning model to predict early-stage Alzheimer's disease using clinical data, neuropsychological scores, and neuroimaging measures from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) dataset. To address challenges like missing values and class imbalance, the study employed iterative imputation and Borderline SVM-SMOTE, followed by feature selection. A stacking ensemble model combining Logistic Regression, Extra Trees, Bagging KNN, and LightGBM was trained alongside an artificial neural network, with performance evaluated using precision, recall, F1-score, and AUC-ROC.
