Abstract
Alzheimer is a neurological disorder that causes cell damage and memory loss. The late symptoms of Alzheimer disease necessitate early identification to minimise the progression of disease and mortality rate. Machine learning and deep learning techniques are required to thoroughly read the MRI images and extract the most relevant information about disease progression. Transfer learning approaches assist in the reduction of computational requirements and minimise the overfitting issues. This study identifies the most appropriate technique for the classification of Alzheimer's disease using machine learning, deep learning, and transfer learning techniques. The classification is performed on the ADNI MRI dataset with the minimal pre-processing of data to compare the results on the same scale. Results suggested that transfer learning approaches outperformed the other algorithms and can be used with other feature extraction techniques to further improve model performance.
