Abstract

Methods and systems for selecting a cohort group or a patient at risk from a population of patients with mild cognitive impairment. The methods include using a computer configured to perform the steps: receiving normalized learning data from a portion of the population of patients; tuning a set of decision trees on the normalized learning data; receiving patient data from one or more patients of the population, wherein the patient data is independent from the learning data; classifying the patient data with the tuned set of decision trees to obtain patient threshold values; and displaying the patient threshold values.
