Problems solved by technology

But using this specific feature extraction method, there will be a loss of feature information, because these features may not be specifically designed to extract brain age-related information
These traditional methods require cumbersome early data processing and poor forecasting results

Abstract

The invention discloses a brain age prediction model and method based on an attention mechanism and bilinear fusion. The method comprises the steps of extracting features of an image through a 3D CNNnetwork; then, in order to better enrich the feature expression capability of each pixel point, carrying out bilinear fusion processing on the extracted image features; meanwhile, due to the fact thatan attention mechanism can capture key feature information influencing the brain age and reduces the attention degree of the feature information irrelevant to the brain age, inputting the image features obtained after bilinear fusion processing into an Attention layer, and obtaining the attention weight of the images; obtaining the attention of the images based on the attention weight; and finally, sending the image features to a full connection layer, and performing brain age regression prediction. According to the invention, the accuracy of brain age prediction is improved by using a methodof combining the attention mechanism and bilinear fusion.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of information technology, relates to image processing, data processing, and medical image processing, in particular to a brain age prediction model and method based on bilinear fusion and attention mechanism. Background technique [0002] Brain age is an important indicator of health because abnormal brain age size can lead to cognitive impairment and risk of neurodegenerative diseases. As a result, a growing number of researchers are attempting to study the interplay between brain aging and disease, and using neuroimaging techniques such as brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to explore biomarkers in individual brains known as "brain age." , and confirmed that brain age has important value in neuroscience and clinical medicine. Brain age deviation is the deviation from the predicted normal aging of a healthy brain. When the predicted brain age is greater than the individual's chronological age, there is a risk ...
