Alzheimer's dementia (AD) is the most common type of dementia, usually characterized by memory loss followed by progressive cognitive decline and functional impairment. AD is one of the leading causes of death and cannot be cured, but proper medical treatment can delay the severity of the disease. Early detection of AD can detect early and prevent the disease from getting worse. So, we need a system that can detect AD as a means of support for the clinical diagnosis. In this study, a system was designed to classify the severity of AD using the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) method with VGG-16 and VGG-19 modeling. From the simulation results with a total of 4,160 MRI datasets, the highest accuracy rate was 98.28% with VGG-19 architecture using Adam's Optimizer for the classification of 3 classes, namely no dementia (normal), mild dementia, and moderate dementia. It is hoped that this study can support clinical diagnosis in assessing the severity of AD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
