During the last years, highly-recognized computational intelligence techniques have been proposed to treat classification problems. These automatic learning approaches lead to the most recent researches because they exhibit outstanding results. Nevertheless, to achieve this performance, artificial learning methods firstly require fine tuning of their parameters and then they need to work with the best-generated model. This process usually needs an expert user for supervising the algorithm’s performance. In this paper, we propose an optimized Extreme Learning Machine by using the Bat Algorithm, which boosts the training phase of the machine learning method to increase the accuracy, and decreasing or keeping the loss in the learning phase. To evaluate our proposal, we use the Parkinson’s Disease audio dataset taken from UCI Machine Learning Repository. Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects over 10 million people. Although its diagnosis is through motor symptoms, it is possible to evidence the disorder through variations in the speech using machine learning techniques. Results suggest that using the bio-inspired optimization algorithm for adjusting the parameters of the Extreme Learning Machine is a real alternative for improving its performance. During the validation phase, the classification process for Parkinson’s Disease achieves a maximum accuracy of 96.74% and a minimum loss of 3.27%.

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a sophisticated anxiety malady that impairs movement. Symptoms emerge gradually, initiating with a slight tremor in only one hand occasionally. Tremors are prevalent, although the condition is sometimes associated with stiffness or slowed mobility. In the early degrees of PD, your face can also additionally display very little expression. Your fingers won’t swing while you walk. Your speech can also additionally grow to be gentle or slurred. PD signs and symptoms get worse as your circumstance progresses over time. The goal of this study is to test the efficiency of deep learning and machine learning approaches in order to identify the most accurate strategy for sensing Parkinson’s disease at an early stage. In order to measure the average performance most accurately, we compared deep learning and machine learning methods.

Background:: Parkinson’s disease is the second most frequent neurodegenerative disorder. Its diagnosis is challenging and mainly relies on clinical aspects. At present, no biomarker is available to obtain a diagnosis of certainty in vivo. Objective:: The present review aims at describing machine learning algorithms as they have been variably applied to different aspects of Parkinson’s disease diagnosis and characterization. Methods:: A systematic search was conducted on PubMed in December 2019, resulting in 230 publications obtained with the following search query: “Machine Learning” “AND” “Parkinson Disease”. Results:: the obtained publications were divided into 6 categories, based on different application fields: “Gait Analysis - Motor Evaluation”, “Upper Limb Motor and Tremor Evaluation”, “Handwriting and typing evaluation”, “Speech and Phonation evaluation”, “Neuroimaging and Nuclear Medicine evaluation”, “Metabolomics application”, after excluding the papers of general topic. As a result, a total of 166 articles were analyzed, after elimination of papers written in languages other than English or not directly related to the selected topics. Conclusion:: Machine learning algorithms are computer-based statistical approaches which can be trained and are able to find common patterns from big amounts of data. The machine learning approaches can help clinicians in classifying patients according to several variables at the same time.

The aging population is primarily affected by Alzheimer’s disease (AD) that is an incurable neurodegenerative disorder. There is a need for an automated efficient technique to diagnose Alzheimer’s in its early stage. Various techniques are used to diagnose AD. EEG and neuroimaging methodologies are widely used to highlight changes in the electrical activity of the brain signals that are helpful for early diagnosis. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a major neurological disease that results in an average of 50,000 new clinical diagnoses worldwide every year. The voice features are majorly used as the main means to diagnose PD. The major symptoms of PD are loss of intensity, the monotony of loudness and pitch, reduction in stress, unidentified silences, and dysphonia. Even though various innovative models are proposed by explorers about Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s classification diseases, still there is a need for efficient learning methodologies and techniques. This paper provides a review on using machine learning (ML) together with several feature extraction techniques that is helpful in the early detection of AD with Parkinson’s. The novelty and objective of this study are that the CAD technique is used to improve the accuracy of early diagnosis of AD. The proposed technique depends on the nonlinear process for data dimension reduction, feature removal, and classification using kernel-based support vector machine (SVM) classifiers. The dimension of the input space is radically diminished with kernel methods. As the learning set is labeled, it creates sense to utilize this information to make a dependable method of dropping the input space dimension. The different techniques of ML are explained under the major approaches viz. SVM, artificial neural network (ANN), deep learning (DL), and ensemble methods. A comprehensive assessment is presented at SVM, ANN, and DL approaches for better detection of Alzheimer’s with PD highlighting future insights.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that occurs due to corrosion of the substantia nigra, located in the thalamic region of the human brain, and is responsible for transmission of neural signals throughout the human body by means of a brain chemical, termed as “dopamine.” Diagnosis of PD is difficult, as it is often affected by the characteristics of the medical data of the patients, which include presence of various indicators, imbalance cases of patients' data records, similar cases of healthy/affected persons, etc. Through this chapter, an intelligent diagnostic system is proposed by integrating one-class SVM, extreme learning machine, and data preprocessing technique. The proposed diagnostic model is validated with six existing techniques and four learning models. The experimental results prove the combination of proposed method with ELM learning model to be highly effective in case of early detection of Parkinson's disease, even in presence of underlying data issues.
