Transformer Model Predicts Alzheimer's Disease Progression

Researchers have developed a novel transformer model designed to predict the progression of Alzheimer's disease over a medium-term horizon, specifically forecasting changes in the Clinical Dementia Rating Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) over 24 months. The model, named Residual Gap-Aware Transformers, addresses challenges posed by irregular and incomplete biomarker data by incorporating a statistical reference with transformer-based residual learning. Tested on data from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI), the model demonstrated superior performance compared to existing baselines, reducing mean squared error and increasing prediction-observation correlation.
