Neuro-symbolic Neurodegenerative Disease Modeling as Probabilistic Programmed Deep Kernels
We present a probabilistic programmed deep kernel learning approach to personalized, predictive modeling of neurodegenerative diseases. Our analysis considers a spectrum of neural and symbolic machine learning approaches, which we assess for predictive performance and important medical AI properties such as interpretability, uncertainty reasoning, data-efficiency, and leveraging domain knowledge. Our Bayesian approach combines the flexibility of Gaussian processes with the structural power of neural networks to model biomarker progressions, without needing clinical labels for training. We run evaluations on the problem of Alzheimer's disease prediction, yielding results that surpass deep learning in both accuracy and timeliness of predicting neurodegeneration, and with the practical advantages of Bayesian nonparametrics and probabilistic programming.

ENC-ODE: Event-level Neurodegenerative Modeling in Continuous Time with Neural ODEs
Accurately predicting the temporal evolution of clinical biomarkers is crucial for the early diagnosis and management of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. However, this relies on longitudinal data t…
Knowledge Graph-based Neurodegenerative Diseases and Diet Relationship Discovery
To date, there are no effective treatments for most neurodegenerative diseases. However, certain foods may be associated with these diseases and bring an opportunity to prevent or delay neurodegenerative progression. Our…
Literature MiningMeta-analysis of Gene Expression in Neurodegenerative Diseases Reveals Patterns in GABA Synthesis and Heat Stress Pathways
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized as the progressive loss of neural cells, e.g. neurons, glial cells. Ageing, monogenic variations, viral infections, and many other factors are determined and speculated as cau…
Multi-View Graph Convolutional Network and Its Applications on Neuroimage Analysis for Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is one of the most prevalent neurodegenerative diseases that affects tens of millions of Americans. PD is highly progressive and heterogeneous. Quite a few studies have been conducted in recent y…
Cross-scale spatially-aware generative modeling of transcriptomic programs underlying neurodegenerative brain organization
Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease exhibit highly organized patterns of regional brain vulnerability, yet the biological mechanisms underlying this spatial selectivity remain incompletely understood.…
