Multi-modal classification of Alzheimer's disease using nonlinear graph fusion

作者:

Highlights:

• Multi-modality biomarkers were used for the classification of AD.

• Nonlinear graph fusion was used to investigate the multi-modal complementary information.

• Validations were performed in different classification scenarios.

• We achieved superior results than the state-of-the-art linear combination approaches.

• The proposed method provides an effective way to integrate multiple heterogeneous data for the classification of AD.
