Researchers have developed a systematic benchmark to evaluate fast deep learning brain segmentation methods for Alzheimer's disease detection. The study decouples parcellation from classification, comparing methods like SynthSeg+ and OpenMAP-T1 against the FreeSurfer (FS-HV) baseline. Their factorial design assesses different parcellation techniques, volumetry strategies, and classifier paradigms, including foundation models with zero/few-shot prompting, with results quantified using BCa Bootstrap confidence intervals.
