The study presents an explainable multimodal deep‑learning framework that combines a 3D CNN for T1‑weighted MRI with a feedforward network for harmonized clinical and demographic data to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease. Using 6,479 ADNI records and 1,703 OASIS‑3 records, the authors compare various model configurations on three‑way and pairwise diagnostic tasks, finding that performance and explanations vary by task, modality, fusion strategy, and cohort. SHAP and Integrated Gradients consistently highlight the MMSE score as the most influential tabular feature, while CAM‑based explanations differ across model setups and cohorts, indicating that explainability is not a stable property under cohort shift.

The study investigates whether a compact, supervised 3D CNN pretrained for brain‑age prediction can act as a reusable foundation model for various Alzheimer's‑related neuroimaging tasks. By freezing the 7.18 million weights and adding only ~1 % of trainable parameters via Low‑Rank Adaptation, the model achieved high performance across six experiments, including dementia classification, MCI progression prediction, amyloid positivity detection, and volume estimation of hippocampal and white matter hypointensities. The results demonstrate that the pretrained brain‑age model generalizes well to new datasets without retraining, offering a data‑efficient alternative to larger networks.
M$^2$PFN is an end‑to‑end multimodal framework that extends the TabPFN in‑context learning engine to Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis by aligning 3D‑MRI and tabular features in a shared subspace. It performs differentiable inference through TabPFN’s transformer, back‑propagates gradients into the encoders, and incorporates a frozen tabular‑only prediction via a gated shortcut. On the ADNI cohort it achieves 65.55 % macro‑F1 and 82.21 % macro‑AUC, surpassing unimodal and multimodal baselines, and it generalizes to external cohorts without retraining.
