Abstract: Machine learning represents a growing subfield of artificial intelligence with much promise in the diagnosis,treatment,and tracking of complex conditions,including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases.While no definitive methods of diagnosis or treatment exist for either disease,researchers have implemented machine learning algorithms with neuroimaging and motion-tracking technology to analyze pathologically relevant symptoms and biomarkers.Deep learning algorithms such as neural networks and complex combined architectures have proven capable of tracking disease-linked changes in brain structure and physiology as well as patient motor and cognitive symptoms and responses to treatment.However,such techniques require further development aimed at improving transparency,adaptability,and reproducibility.In this review,we provide an overview of existing neuroimaging technologies and supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques with their current applications in the context of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases.
