Abstract Alzheimer’s Disease is a problem with the brain that gets worse as time goes on. It affects how people remember things think and understand things. It is really important to know what stage Alzheimer’s Disease is, at so that doctors can give the kind of care and treatment. This project uses computers to look at pictures of the brain from MRI machines to put people into four groups: people who do not have dementia, people who have mild dementia, people who have mild dementia and people who have moderate dementia. The system uses ResNet18, ResNet50 and Vision Transformer models. It also uses a Genetic Algorithm. This algorithm helps to optimize some things like the learning rate the batch size, the weight decay and the model selection, for the ResNet18, ResNet50 and Vision Transformer models. The system really relies on these models, including ResNet18, ResNet50 and Vision Transformer models to get the results. The MRI images are changed to make the model work better with pictures. We tried a lot of things. Found that using ResNet based architectures works the best. We trained these architectures times. The system we made got it 97.78 percent of the time and had a weighted F1-score of 0.9777, which is really good. This is especially true for people, with dementia. It is still hard to tell when someone has Very Mild Dementia. The study is really about Alzheimer’s disease classification. It shows that using learning and optimization techniques together makes Alzheimer’s disease classification more accurate and reliable. This is news for people who are trying to detect Alzheimer’s disease. The people who did the study think that they can make it even better, by using biomarkers to help find the disease early on. Alzheimer’s disease classification is what they are trying to improve.
