| Abstract | Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a major public health challenge as the median age of the industrialized world's population is increasing gradually. No cure for this disease has yet been found and the development of new treatments has become a topic of major research interest. This paper aims to propose a sequence of fully automated MRI-based image analysis steps to measure the development stage of atrophy in the brain. The results have been validated on a mixed group of 68 subjects by distinguishing between AD patients, MCIs and health controls using linear classifiers and ANNs. The best classifier identified unseen AD patients correctly in 80% of the cases and control subjects in 85%. Recognizing more than 8 out of 10 MCI subjects, the method also yields an early indication of AD. This simple yet powerful analysis can compete with other more time-consuming and semi-automatic methodologies. It could abet an AD diagnosis and provide a tool for measuring the success of therapies |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
