Published purpose
This project involves the development of specialized machine learning methods, leveraging a comprehensive dataset from healthy patients. The primary objective is to construct models capable of analyzing smaller patient populations, facilitating early, personalized diagnoses that are accurate across diverse subpopulations. The proposed methodology includes exploring transfer learning, a powerful machine learning technique that harnesses knowledge from one task to enhance performance on related tasks. Specifically, we aim to employ precise learning models for the development of sex and race-optimized early diagnostic methods for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases.
