A promising approach in AD research is the analysis of structural and functional brain connectomes, i.e. sNETs and fNETs, respectively. We propose to use tensor representation (B-tensor) of uni-modal and multi-modal brain connectomes to define a low-dimensional space via tensor factorization. We show on a cohort of 47 subjects, spanning the spectrum of dementia, that diagnosis with an accuracy of 77% to 100% is achievable in a 5D connectome space using different structural and functional connectome constructions in a uni-modal and multi-modal fashion. We further show that multi-modal tensor factorization improves the results suggesting complementary information in structure and function. A neurological assessment of the connectivity patterns identified largely agrees with prior knowledge, yet also suggests new associations that may play a role in the disease progress.Pancreas identification and segmentation is an essential task in the diagnosis and prognosis of pancreas disease. Although deep neural networks have been widely applied in abdominal organ segmentation, it is still challenging for small organs (e.g. pancreas) that present low contrast, highly flexible anatomical structure and relatively small region. In recent years, coarse-to-fine methods have improved pancreas segmentation accuracy by using coarse predictions in the fine stage, but only object location is utilized and rich image context is neglected. In this paper, we propose a novel distance-based saliency-aware model, namely DSD-ASPP-Net, to fully use coarse segmentation to highlight the pancreas feature and boost accuracy in the fine segmentation stage. Specifically, a DenseASPP (Dense Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling) model is trained to learn the pancreas location and probabili
