Screening tools for subjective cognitive decline and mild cognitive impairment based on task-state prefrontal functional connectivity: a functional near-infrared spectroscopy study by Zhengping Pu, Hongna Huang, Man Li, Hongyan Li, Xiaoyan Shen, Lizhao Du, Qingfeng Wu, Xiaomei Fang, Xiang Meng, Qin Ni, Guorong Li, Donghong Cui

“…Results: Statistical analysis revealed a trend toward more impaired prefrontal FC with declining cognitive function. Prediction models were built by combining features of prefrontal FC and cognitive scale performance and applying machine learning models, The models showed generally satisfactory abilities to differentiate among the three groups, especially those employing linear discriminant analysis, logistic regression, and support vector machine. …”
