The paper presents a feasibility analysis of a novel Spiking Neural Network (SNN) architecture called NeuCube [10] for classification and analysis of functional changes in brain activity of Electroencephalography (EEG) data collected amongst two groups: control and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Excellent classification results of 100% test accuracy have been achieved and these have also been compared with traditional machine learning techniques. Outputs confirmed that the Neu-Cube is better suited to model, classify, interpret and understand EEG data and the brain processes involved. Future applications of a NeuCube model are discussed including its use as an indicator of the early onset of Mild Cognitive Impairment(MCI) to study degeneration of the pathology toward AD.

Abstract
The paper presents a feasibility analysis of a novel Spiking Neural Network (SNN) architecture called NeuCube [10] for classification and analysis of functional changes in brain activity of Electroencephalography (EEG) data collected amongst two groups: control and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Excellent classification results of 100% test accuracy have been achieved and these have also been compared with traditional machine learning techniques. Outputs confirmed that the Neu-Cube is better suited to model, classify, interpret and understand EEG data and the brain processes involved. Future applications of a NeuCube model are discussed including its use as an indicator of the early onset of Mild Cognitive Impairment(MCI) to study degeneration of the pathology toward AD.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
