 calls for original papers in
the field of clinical neuroimaging data analysis with machine learning. The
two tracks of the workshop include methodological innovations as well as
clinical applications. This highly interdisciplinary topic provides an
excellent platform to connect researchers of varying disciplines and to
collectively advance the field in multiple directions.

In the *machine learning* track, we seek novel contributions that address
current methodological gaps in analyzing high-dimensional, longitudinal,
and heterogeneous clinical neuroscientific data using stable, scalable, and
interpretable machine learning models. Topics of interest include but are
not limited to:

·       Big data

·       Spatio-temporal brain data analysis

·       Structural data analysis

·       Graph theory and complex network analysis

·       Longitudinal data analysis

·       Model stability and interpretability

·       Model scalability in large neuroimaging datasets

·       Multi-source data integration and multi-view learning

·       Multi-site data analysis, from preprocessing to modeling

·       Domain adaptation, data harmonization, and transfer learning in
neuroimaging

·       Unsupervised methods for stratifying brain disorders

·       Deep learning in clinical neuroimaging

·       Model uncertainty in clinical predictions

·       …

In the *clinical neuroimaging *track*,* the applications of existing
machine learning algorithms are evaluated to move towards precision
medicine for complex brain disorders. The discovery of biological markers
in medicine is an important challenge across different fields and various
experimental procedures and designs are used to detect biological
signatures that can be utilized for improvement in diagnostic, treatment,
or for other beneficial ends. However, for most complex brain disorders, we
do not have reliable biomarkers today. The application of advanced machine
learning methods may help to reach this goal. Therefore, we invite the
community to submit conference contributions on machine learning approaches
with the goal to improve our understanding of complex brain disorders,
moving the field closer to precision medicine. Topics of interest include
but are not limited to:

·       Biomarker discovery

·       Refinement of nosology and diagnostics

·       Biological validation of clinical syndromes

·       Treatment outcome prediction

·       Course prediction

·       Analysis of wearable sensors

·       Neurogenetics and brain imaging genetics

·       Mechanistic modeling

·       Brain aging

·       The presentation of clinical neuroimaging databases to stimulate
developments in machine learning

·       …
