This study modifies 3D convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to handle dependent samples in biomedical imaging, improving predictions of cognitive trajectories from brain scans.

Area of Science:

Neuroimaging
Machine Learning
Biomedical Data Analysis

Background:

Standard machine learning assumes independent training samples, which is often violated in biomedical studies with limited, multi-sample datasets.
Violation of the independence assumption is particularly problematic for small-to-medium sized datasets common in medical research.
Existing 3D CNNs may not adequately address sample dependency in brain imaging analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

To adapt 3D convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for analyzing dependent samples in biomedical imaging.
To enhance the performance of 3D CNNs by incorporating information about sample dependency.
To improve the prediction of cognitive trajectories using morphometric changes from longitudinal brain imaging data.

Main Methods:

Modified 3D CNN architectures to explicitly model dependencies between training samples.
Incorporated terms encoding sample dependency into the network's learning objective.
Utilized morphometric change images derived from multiple time points for predicting cognitive trajectories (slope and intercept).

Main Results:

Demonstrated consistent performance improvements by augmenting standard 3D CNNs to account for sample dependency.
Showcased the value of exploiting dependency information even within standard 3D CNN frameworks.
Achieved better prediction of cognitive trajectories compared to a baseline model that ignored sample dependency.

Conclusions:

Modifying 3D CNNs to handle dependent samples offers significant advantages in biomedical imaging analysis.
Accounting for sample dependency is crucial for robust performance, especially with limited or clustered datasets.
The proposed approach enhances the predictive power of neuroimaging models for understanding cognitive trajectories.
