Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a highly prevalent neurodevelopmental disease of school-age children. Early diagnosis is crucial for ADHD treatment, wherein its neurobiological diagnosis (or classification) is helpful and provides the objective evidence to clinicians. The existing ADHD classification methods suffer two problems, i. e. , insufficient data and feature noise disturbance from other associated disorders. As an attempt to overcome these difficulties, a novel deep-learning classification architecture based on a binary hypothesis testing framework and a modified auto-encoding (AE) network is proposed in this paper. The binary hypothesis testing framework is introduced to cope with insufficient data of ADHD database. Brain functional connectivities (FCs) of test data (without seeing their labels) are incorporated during feature selection along with those of training data and affect the sequential deep learning procedure under binary hypotheses. On the other hand, the modified AE network is developed to capture more effective features from training data, such that the difference of inter- and intra-class variability scores between binary hypotheses can be enlarged and effectively alleviate the disturbance of feature noise. On the test of ADHD-200 database, our method significantly outperforms the existing classification methods. The average accuracy reaches 99. 6% with the leave-one-out cross validation. Our method is also more robust and practically convenient for ADHD classification due to its uniform parameter setting across various datasets.

As one of the most common neurobehavioral diseases in school-age children, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has been increasingly studied in recent years. But it is still a challenge problem to accurately identify ADHD patients from healthy persons. To address this issue, we propose a dual subspace classification algorithm by using individual resting-state Functional Connectivity (FC). In detail, two subspaces respectively containing ADHD and healthy control features, called as dual subspaces, are learned with several subspace measures, wherein a modified graph embedding measure is employed to enhance the intra-class relationship of these features. Therefore, given a subject (used as test data) with its FCs, the basic classification principle is to compare its projected component energy of FCs on each subspace and then predict the ADHD or control label according to the subspace with larger energy. However, this principle in practice works with low efficiency, since the dual subspaces are unstably obtained from ADHD databases of small size. Thereby, we present an ADHD classification framework by a binary hypothesis testing of test data. Here, the FCs of test data with its ADHD or control label hypothesis are employed in the discriminative FC selection of training data to promote the stability of dual subspaces. For each hypothesis, the dual subspaces are learned from the selected FCs of training data. The total projected energy of these FCs is also calculated on the subspaces. Sequentially, the energy comparison is carried out under the binary hypotheses. The ADHD or control label is finally predicted for test data with the hypothesis of larger total energy. In the experiments on ADHD-200 dataset, our method achieves a significant classification performance compared with several state-of-the-art machine learning and deep learning methods, where our accuracy is about 90 % for most of ADHD databases in the leave-one-out cross-validation test.
