Alzheimer's Disease (AD) affects more than 6 million Americans and is the 7th leading cause of death in the United States. Despite its prevalence and the severity of its effects, the causes of AD are not yet fully understood. In order to better understand the progression of AD, and thus identify potential inflection points for disease onset and aggravation, we train a model using the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) dataset to predict AD presence and estimate AD progression.
