Deep learning encodes robust discriminative neuroimaging representations to outperform standard machine learning

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Recent critical commentaries unfavorably compare deep learning (DL) with standard machine learning (SML) for brain imaging data analysis. Here, the authors show that if trained following prevalent DL practices, DL methods substantially improve compared ...
