Popis: In Press; International audience; Recently, several pattern recognition methods have been proposed to automaticallydiscriminate between patients with and without Alzheimer’s disease using different imagingtechniques: sMRI, fMRI, PET and SPECT. Classical approaches in visual informationretrieval have been successfully used for analysis of structural MRI brain images. In thispaper, we use the visual indexing framework and pattern recognition analysis based onstructural MRI data to discriminate three classes of subjects: Normal Controls (NC),Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). The approach uses theCircular Harmonic Functions (CHFs) to extract local features from the most involvedareas in the disease: Hippocampus and Posterior Cingulate Cortex (PCC) in each slicein all three brain projections. The features are quantized using the Bag-of-Visual-Wordsapproach to build one signature by brain (subject). This yields a transformation of a full3D image of brain ROIs into a 1D signature, a histogram of quantized features. To reducethe dimensionality of the signature, we use the PCA technique. Support vector machinesclassifiers are then applied to classify groups. The experiments were conducted on a subsetof ADNI dataset and applied to the ”Bordeaux-3City” dataset. The results showed thatour approach achieves respectively for ADNI dataset and ”Bordeaux-3City” dataset; for AD vs NC classification, an accuracy of 83.77% and 78%, a specificity of 88.2% and 80.4% and a sensitivity of 78.54% and 74.7%. For NC versus MCI classification we achievedfor the ADNI datasets an accuracy of 69.45%, a specificity of 74.8% and a sensitivity of62.52%. For the most challenging classification task (AD versus MCI), we reached anaccuracy of 62.07%, a specificity of 75.15% and a sensitivity of 49.02%. The use of PCC visualfeatures description improves classification results by more than 5% compared to the useof Hippocampus features only. Our approach is automatic, less time-consuming and doesnot require the intervention of the clinician during the disease diagnosis.
