Abstract

AI and machine learning are changing Alzheimer's disease diagnosis. These advancements are improving massive dataset analysis, enabling early diagnosis and personalized treatment. With the Continuous Wavelet Transform and Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, Electroencephalogram signal processing has become important. Machine learning classifiers enhance diagnostic accuracy. PCC-KNN, which prioritizes alpha frequency band, improves classification accuracy by combining pattern recognition and connection insights. EEG signal parameters of unhealthy and healthy patients are compared by extracting CWT and PCC parameters.  KNN, SVM, RF and DNN are trained as classifier algorithms. Using PCC to detect brain area correlations and alpha frequency oscillations helps uncover neurological disease connection problems. Combining KNN improves pattern recognition for complex alpha dynamics. KNN-PCC in the alpha frequency band improves neurological disease categorization with 96% F1-score, 95% sensitivity, 99% specificity, and 97.9% accuracy. Cognitive deterioration is linked to alpha spectrum alterations. Alpha power and slow wave activity rise may be indicated in early AD patients.
