Hippocampus Segmentation Using U-Net Convolutional Network from Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

Hippocampus is a part of the limbic system in human brain that plays an important role in forming memories and dealing with intellectual abilities. In most of the neurological disorders related to dementia, such as, Alzheimer's disease, hippocampus is one of the earliest affected regions. Because there are no effective dementia drugs, an ambient assisted living approach may help to prevent or slow the progression of dementia.

Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging Classification Using Deep Learning Architectures with Gender and Age.

Usage of effective classification techniques on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) helps in the proper diagnosis of brain tumors. Previous studies have focused on the classification of normal (nontumorous) or abnormal (tumorous) brain MRIs using methods such as Support Vector Machine (SVM) and AlexNet. In this paper, deep learning architectures are used to classify brain MRI images into normal or abnormal.
