The paper introduces TAFNet, a temporal attention fusion network that uses both a baseline and a follow‑up T1‑weighted brain scan to predict which individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) will progress to dementia. The model employs a pretrained Siamese encoder for each scan and fuses the two scans through anatomical difference, cross‑temporal attention, joint context, and a learned per‑patient gate. Evaluated on paired scans from the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, TAFNet outperforms single‑scan networks and a simple scan‑difference model, achieving significant gains in cross‑validation and maintaining high sensitivity at clinically reasonable specificity.
Neurological disorders involve diverse pathologies of the brain and nervous system, making early and accurate detection essential. While many deep CNNs have been developed for MRI-based classification of neurological disorders, most are optimized for binary tasks and often fail to capture the multi-class features needed to distinguish subtle anatomical differences across conditions.

The study evaluates four deep‑learning segmentation architectures—Unet, PSPNet, Linknet, and FPN—paired with six pre‑trained encoders to predict COVID‑19 lesions in CT images. Experiments on three COVID‑19 CT datasets show high accuracy, achieving a maximum binary F1‑score of 98% and multi‑class F1‑scores of 75% and 77%. The work aims to provide a standardized performance benchmark for medical image segmentation and a reference for other imaging scenarios.
This study examined whether augmenting brain tumor MRI datasets with class‑specific DCGAN‑generated images improves classification performance. Using 7,200 scans across four tumor categories, a Swin Transformer classifier trained on real images alone achieved 96% accuracy, identical to the model trained with 500 synthetic images per class. Metrics such as macro F1 and ROC‑AUC showed no improvement, and FID scores indicated substantial distributional differences between real and synthetic images.
