Abstract
In Alzheimer's disease detection, the early detection of morphological differences is
challenging to provide pre-treatment. MRI imaging technique is utilised to detect the severity level
of AD in patients. Hence, by analysing hippocampus volume using magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI), the AD disease level can detect. Measuring hippocampus volume requires a great deal of time
and is not feasible for manual segmentation [1]. Automatic segmentation is required to bypass these
restrictions and obtain the AD biomarkers. MRI is widely preferred for obtaining detailed structural
brain images in three dimensions (3-D). In this imaging technique, vivo voxel dimensions of certain
structures influenced by disease progressions can be obtained. Structural MRI is broadly accessible,
provides better accuracy of diagnosis and has reasonable costs.
Furthermore, MRIs indicate higher associations with the progression of mild cognitive
impairments (MCI) to AD. However, the dissimilarities between progressive MCI (pMCI) and stable
MCI (sMCI) are too minute to be discovered via MRI. This refined dissimilarity has emerged from
huge inter subject inconsistencies and age-linked deviations. Hence, predicting MCI-to-AD
conversion by MRI scanning is an arduous task. In the current comprehensive literature, the particle
swarm optimisation-based fuzzy c-means technique has been appraised for segmenting the brain
region. This process utilised a limited number of validation parameters to validate the segmentation
accuracy
