Abstract
This paper introduces MD-AD, a multi-task deep learning framework designed to analyze heterogeneous Alzheimer's Disease (AD) datasets. MD-AD leverages the synergy between deep neural networks and multi-cohort settings to uncover complex, non-linear relationships between gene expression and AD neuropathologies, overcoming limitations of conventional methods. The framework identifies subtle disease signals, reveals sex-specific relationships between microglial immune response and neuropathology, and demonstrates generalizability across species and tissues.
