摘要

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that poses a serious global threat to human health. Accurate detection of AD is critical for improving patient outcomes, yet current detection methods still exhibit significant limitations in accuracy, necessitating further improvement. In this paper, we propose an AD detection method based on multi-frequency electroencephalography (EEG) and a multi-functional connectivity graph convolutional network (MFE-FCGCN). The method conducts multi-frequency analysis of power spectral density (PSD) features across five EEG frequency bands (Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Gamma) and constructs two functional connectivity networks based on mutual information and Pearson correlation coefficients. This network comprehensively captures abnormalities in brain network structures induced by AD, across different frequency bands and connectivity modes. By leveraging a multi-dimensional feature extraction and fusion strategy, the model effectively identifies EEG pattern changes associated with AD, enhancing detection accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that this method achieves a classification accuracy of 95.09% and an AUC of 98.36% on the ds00450 dataset from the OpenNeuro database, significantly outperforming traditional approaches and validating its superior performance in AD detection.
