Abstract

Abstract One critical manifestation of neurological deterioration is the sign of cognitive decline. Causes of cognitive decline include but are not limited to: aging, cerebrovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, and trauma. Currently, the primary tool used to examine cognitive decline is scale. However, scale examination has drawbacks such as its clinician subjectivity and inconsistent results. This study attempted to use resting-state EEG to construct a cognitive assessment model that is capable of providing a more scientific and robust evaluation on cognition levels. In this study, 75 healthy subjects, 99 patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), and 78 patients with dementia were involved. Their resting-state EEG signlas were collected twice, and the recording devices varied. By matching these EEG and traditional scale results, the proposed cognition assessment model was trained based on Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) methods, mapping subjects' cognitive levels to a 0-100 test score with a mean error of 4.82 (< 5%). This study is the first to establish a continuous evaluation model of cognitive decline on a large sample dataset. Its cross-device usability also suggests universality and robustness of this EEG model, offering a more reliable and affordable way to assess cognitive decline for clinical diagnosis and treatment as well. Furthermore, the interpretability of features involved may further contribute to the early diagnosis and superior treatment evaluation of Alzheimer's disease.
