Chapter 3 Hippocampal segmentation using multiple atlases 61<br />

For the test of atlas selection strategies, we used a larger atlas set provi<strong>de</strong>d<br />

by Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI). A leave-one-out cross-<br />

validation is performed on two set of atlases. One consists of NC subjects (n =<br />

138), <strong>and</strong> the other consists of AD patients (n = 99). The performance of different<br />

atlas selection criteria on large atlas sets (n ∼ 100) is tested.<br />
