Machine Learning is an area of artificial intelligence involving the development of algorithms to discover trends and patterns in existing data; this information can then be used to make predictions on new data. A growing number of researchers and clinicians are using machine learning methods to develop and validate tools for assisting the diagnosis and treatment of patients with brain disorders. Machine Learning: Methods and Applications to Brain Disorders provides an up-to-date overview of how these methods can be applied to brain disorders, including both psychiatric and neurological disease. This book is written for a non-technical audience, such as neuroscientists, psychologists, psychiatrists, neurologists and health care practitioners.

Über Autor(innen)

Mechelli, Andrea
Andrea Mechelli is a clinical psychologist and a neuroscientist with an interest in the early detection and treatment of mental illness. After studying Psychology at the University of Padua (1999), he completed a PhD in Neurological Sciences at University College London in 2002 and became an academic member of staff at King's College London in 2004. He currently holds the position of Professor of Early Intervention in Mental Health at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience at King's College London. Prof. Mechelli's research involves the application of advanced machine learning methods to clinical, neuroimaging and smartphone data, with the aim of developing and validating novel tools for early detection and treatment.

Vieira, Sandra
Sandra Vieira is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (King's College London). After completing a degree in Psychology (2009) and a Masters in Clinical Psychology (2011) at the University of Coimbra, she joined the Institute Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience. Here she obtained a Masters in Psychiatric Research in 2014 and a PhD in Psychosis Studies in 2019. Her research focuses on the integration of advanced machine learning methods and multi-modal neuroimaging to investigate the neural basis of mental illness and develop imaging-based clinical tools.
