阿尔茨海默病(AD)的早期精准检测对及时干预至关重要。广义特征值近端支持向量机(GEPSVM)及其基于Universum的变体在AD分类中表现良好,但现有方法将Universum样本视为独立点,忽略其内在几何关系。本文提出两种图引导的Universum学习模型:UG-GEPSVM与IUG-GEPSVM,用于基于结构磁共振成像(MRI)数据的AD与认知正常(CN)分类。以轻度认知障碍(MCI)受试者作为Universum数据,提供介于AD与CN之间的中间信息。通过高斯相似性、最小生成树连通性及多跳传播构建MCI样本的图结构,进而提取拉普拉斯矩阵以捕捉其几何特性,并将其作为正则项替代传统独立Universum惩罚项。其中,UG-GEPSVM将其融入广义特征值框架,IUG-GEPSVM则在数值稳定改进的GEPSVM框架中采用标准特征值形式。在ADNI MRI数据集不同降维特征(ICA/PCA)及五种噪声水平下的实验表明,两种模型均持续优于现有GEPSVM及Universum方法。UG-GEPSVM取得最高平均AUC 88.07%,且在噪声增加时仍保持稳定性能。统计检验进一步验证了提升的显著性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Early and accurate detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is important for timely intervention and disease management. Generalized Eigenvalue Proximal Support Vector Machine (GEPSVM) and its Universum-based variants have shown promising results for AD classification. However, existing methods treat Universum samples as independent points and do not consider the geometric relationships among them. This paper proposes two graph-guided Universum learning models, namely UG-GEPSVM and IUG-GEPSVM, for AD versus cognitively normal (CN) classification using structural MRI data. In the proposed framework, mild cognitive impairment (MCI) subjects are used as Universum data to provide intermediate information between AD and CN classes. A graph is constructed over the Universum samples using Gaussian similarity, Minimum Spanning Tree connectivity, and multi-hop propagation. From this graph, a Laplacian matrix is derived that captures the geometric structure of the MCI samples. This Laplacian-based regularization is incorporated into the learning process in place of the conventional independent Universum penalty term. UG-GEPSVM integrates this regularization into the generalized eigenvalue formulation, while IUG-GEPSVM extends the numerically stable improved GEPSVM framework using a standard eigenvalue formulation. Experiments on ADNI MRI dataset variants using ICA- and PCA-based features at five different noise levels show that both proposed models consistently outperform existing GEPSVM and Universum-based methods. UG-GEPSVM achieves the highest average AUC of 88.07% and maintains stable performance under increasing noise levels. Statistical tests further confirm the significance of the observed improvements.
