jats:pAlzheimer’s disease is one of the major challenges of population ageing, and diagnosis and prediction of the disease through various biomarkers is the key. While the application of deep learning as imaging technologies has recently expanded across the medical industry, empirical design of these technologies is very difficult. The main reason for this problem is that the performance of the Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) differ greatly depending on the statistical distribution of the input dataset. Different hyperparameters also greatly affect the convergence of the CNN models. With this amount of information, selecting appropriate parameters for the network structure has became a large research area. Genetic Algorithm (GA), is a very popular technique to automatically select a high-performance network architecture. In this paper, we show the possibility of optimising the network architecture using GA, where its search space includes both network structure configuration and hyperparameters. To verify the performance of our Algorithm, we used an amyloid brain image dataset that is used for Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis. As a result, our algorithm outperforms Genetic CNN by 11.73% on a given classification task.</jats:p>
