Alzheimer’s disease (AD) causes degeneration of the brain cells leading to cognitive decline and memory loss, as well as dependence on others to fulfill basic daily needs. AD is the major cause of dementia. Computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) tools aid medical practitioners in accurately identifying diseases such as AD in patients. This study aimed to develop a CADx tool for the early detection of AD using the Intelligent Water Drop (IWD) algorithm and the Random Forest (RF) classifier. The IWD algorithm an efficient feature… More >
