Abstract

Medical social media analytics becomes more and more popular nowadays because of its effectiveness in benefiting diverse health-care applications. In this study, the essential disease prediction task is investigated and realized via medical social media analytics techniques. To be specific, arterial spin labeling (ASL), an emerging functional magnetic resonance imaging modality, is utilized to provide image-based information and novel ranking as well as learning techniques are proposed and incorporated to fulfill the disease prediction task in dementia. To demonstrate its superiority, comprehensive statistical experiments are conducted with comparison to several conventional methods. Promising results are reported from this study.
