arXiv:2606. 20037v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an irreversible neurodegenerative disorder and a leading cause of death worldwide.
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 paper introduces MCNet, a neural network that assigns a Modality Contribution Score (MCS) to each patient, indicating how much structural MRI versus amyloid PET drives the diagnostic decision for Alzheimer’s disease. Across 327 ADNI-3 participants, MCNet achieved strong three‑class staging (AUC = 0.881) and the MCS showed a clear, statistically significant increase in PET dominance from cognitively normal to AD. The method was validated on an independent OASIS‑3 cohort and compared favorably to SHAP, suggesting it can guide personalized imaging and clinical trial decisions.
