This study proposes a deep learning-based framework to detect and classify Alzheimer's disease (AD) in the early stages using medical imaging, and specifically Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Specifically, we propose a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) based model and transfer learn (MobileNet) through pre-trained models based on task domain to improve model performance on binary AD classification. Thanks to minimizing computational complexity and memory costs, the model with 99.86% accuracy rate can mitigate overfitting and is an ideal approach for real time and eco-friendly monitoring of AD evolution. The findings suggest that the model could help clinicians in diagnosing AD even based on MRI images, which has great potential as a scalable and efficient solution for the early-stage diagnosis and classification of the disease. Our work will include the addition of further pre-trained models, increased dataset size via data augmentation, and the application of MRI segmentation to better isolate some of the key features of Alzheimer.
