Abstract:
The recent evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) can be considered life-changing. In particular, there is great interest in emerging hot topics in AI such as image classification and natural language processing. Our world has been revolutionized by convolutional neural networks and transformer for image classification and natural language processing, respectively. Moreover, these techniques can be used in the field of dementia. We introduce some applications of AI systems for treating and diagnosing dementia, including image-classification AI for recognizing facial features associated with dementia, image-classification AI for classifying leukoaraiosis in MRI images, object-detection AI for detecting microbleeding in MRI images, object-detection AI for support care, natural language-processing AI for detecting dementia within conversations, and natural language-processing AI for chatbots. Such AI technologies can significantly transform the future of dementia diagnosis and treatment. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2024; 24: 25-30.
