| Abstract | Early detection of Alzheimer's disease is expected to aid in the development and monitoring of more effective treatments. Classification methods have been proposed to distinguish Alzheimer's patients from normal controls using Magnetic Resonance Images. However, their performance drops when classifying patients at a prodromal stage, such as in Mild Cognitive Impairment. Most often, the features used in these classification tasks are related to structural measures such as volume, shape and tissue density. However, microstructural changes have been shown to arise even earlier than these larger-scale alterations. Taking this into account, we propose the use of local statistical texture maps that make no assumptions regarding the location of the affected brain regions. Each voxel contains texture information from its local neighborhood and is used as a feature in the classification of normal controls and Mild Cognitive Impairment patients. The proposed approach obtained an accuracy of 87% (sensitivity 85%, specificity 95%) with Support Vector Machines, outperforming the 63% achieved by the local gray matter density feature. |

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.
