Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression is often described through the amyloid-tau-neurodegeneration, or AT(N), cascade. However, most longitudinal models represent this cascade either as a fixed sequence of biomarkers or as a black-box forecasting task.

arXiv:2608. 19436v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Alzheimer's disease (AD) progresses as a continuous biological process, whereas most existing neuroimaging-based artificial intelligence methods remain limited to discrete diagnosis or clinical score prediction from cross-sectional imaging.
arXiv:2606. 17867v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite increasing adoption of multimodal approaches in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) research -- aimed at integrating molecular, structural, clinical, and genetic biomarkers to enhance disease characterization -- the relationships among these modalities remain poorly understood.
arXiv:2606. 04066v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding how structural connections are associated with tau propagation in Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains a central open question, yet existing computational models either rely heavily on biophysical assumptions or lack neurobiologically interpretable pathway maps.
arXiv:2606. 09671v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression is highly heterogeneous and is typically observed through sparse and irregular longitudinal data, posing challenges for prediction and personalised monitoring.
arXiv:2606. 18535v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-cause observational studies contain information about unmeasured confounding through the dependence structure among causes.
Longitudinal modelling of Alzheimer's disease progression is clinically useful only if it can describe not just the most likely next diagnosis, but how a patient may evolve over time and how reliable that forecast is. Most deep learning approaches reduce this problem to single-step classification, treating cognitively normal, mild cognitive impairment, and dementia as flat categories while providing limited insight into how uncertainty accumulates across future visits.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression is highly heterogeneous and is typically observed through sparse and irregular longitudinal data, posing challenges for prediction and personalised monitoring. Existing machine learning approaches have improved AD prediction using multimodal data, yet often focus on static classification or cohort-level risk estimation, providing limited support for subject-specific modelling and uncertainty-aware reasoning.
arXiv:2606. 30398v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurately predicting the temporal evolution of clinical biomarkers is crucial for the early diagnosis and management of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease.
Brain-PACE is a deep Siamese MRI framework that directly estimates the pace of structural brain ageing from paired T1‑weighted MRI scans, extending the LILAC model with spatial attention, soft label distribution learning, and a Cramér distance objective. In a study of participants with mild cognitive impairment, 42.6 % showed accelerated ageing, and faster Brain‑PACE scores correlated with greater functional and cognitive impairment as well as higher regional tau burden in key brain regions. The method improves probabilistic performance, reduces prediction bias, and provides predictive uncertainty, offering a complementary longitudinal imaging phenotype sensitive to early neurodegeneration.
