Abstract

A parametric representation of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) indicates cognitive, behavioral, and intellectual difficulties. Aging is the biggest risk factor for most neurodegenerative diseases including AD. Age-related genetic, biochemical, structural, and functional changes commonly contribute to the liability to AD. Clinical electroencephalogram (EEG) technology enables the detection of the underlying neurophysiological abnormalities associated with AD, such as neuronal loss, synaptic dysfunction, and aberrant network connections, which can be reflected in the variations of EEG features and their temporal evolution. EEG data can be analyzed using a range of signal processing techniques, including discrete wavelet transform, the Burg method, and average periodogram, to investigate the cerebral activity linked to various cognitive and behavioral activities. Artificial intelligence (AI) can improve the efficiency of signal processing and achieve automatic classification of patients. Interest is growing in the use of AI algorithms and other cutting-edge computational techniques to analyze EEG data for the diagnosis of AD. By assisting in the detection of specific changes in EEG patterns, these techniques might enable earlier and more accurate diagnosis of AD.
