This paper presents the results obtained using a protocol based on special types of artificial neural networks (ANNs) assembled in a novel methodology able to compress the temporal sequence of electroencephalographic (EEG) data into spatial invariants for the automatic classification of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) subjects. With reference to the procedure reported in our previous study (2007), this protocol includes a new type of artificial organism, named TWIST. The working hypothesis was that compared to the results presented by the workgroup (2007); the new artificial organism TWIST could produce a better classification between AD and MCI.<jats:italic>Material and methods<\/jats:italic>. Resting eyes-closed EEG data were recorded in 180 AD patients and in 115 MCI subjects. The data inputs for the classification, instead of being the EEG data, were the weights of the connections within a nonlinear autoassociative ANN trained to generate the recorded data. The most relevant features were selected and coincidently the datasets were split in the two halves for the final binary classification (training and testing) performed by a supervised ANN.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. The best results distinguishing between AD and MCI were equal to 94.10% and they are considerable better than the ones reported in our previous study (<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"E1\"><mml:mo>\u223c<\/mml:mo><\/mml:math>92%) (2007).<jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. The results confirm the working hypothesis that a correct automatic classification of MCI and AD subjects can be obtained by extracting spatial information content of the resting EEG voltage by ANNs and represent the basis for research aimed at integrating spatial and temporal information content of the EEG.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2007\/35021","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,12,13]],"date-time":"2007-12-13T13:41:26Z","timestamp":1197553286000},"page":"1-15","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["The
