The current clinical practice relies on subjective clinician evaluation, leading to potential misdiagnosis and delayed treatment. This study ventures beyond symptom-based diagnosis by harnessing the power of neuroimaging and machine learning (ML) .  \nWe present an optimized framework to develop a ML pipeline designed to distinguish healthy controls (HC) from patients (P) and to classify ROP and ROD using structural and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data from 506 participants of the multi-site European PRONIA study. Recognizing the potential influence of substance use, we explore the possibility of incorporating these additional features. To ensure model robustness and generalizability, a nested cross-validation (CV) scheme is implemented, featuring a unique design that integrates confounder correction and optimization tools. The pipeline development involved a meticulous search for the best-performing featureselection (FS) and optimization techniques including filter-based methods and genetic algorithms (GA) . Finally, Shapley values and permutation importance techniques were used to gain valuable insights into the model’s decision-making process.  \nThe GA consistently demonstrated its potential for applications in psychiatric diagnosis. Used both for feature selection and model selection tasks, it achieved the following average accuracies: 0 .574 for HC vs. P and 0 .676 for ROP vs. ROD. Our findings also revealed that incorporating data on substance use improved the overall classification accuracy. By leveraging the power of neuroimaging and ML, this study paves the way for more objective data-driven diagnoses of ROP and ROD, ultimately contributing to improved patient outcomes.  \nKeywords: psychosis, depression, MRI, PRONIA, machine learning, genetic algorithms, shapley values, nested cross-validation  \nAbstract in lingua italiana  \nIl riconoscimento di psicosi o depressione ad esordio recente (ROP o ROD) rimane unostacolo significativo in psichiatria. I metodi tradizionali si basano fortemente sui sintomiriportati dai pazienti, portando a potenziali diagnosi errate e ritardi nel trattamento. Questo studio si spinge oltre la diagnosi basata sui sintomi sfruttando i concetti della diagnostica per immagini e del machine learning (ML) .  \nViene qui presentato un framework per lo sviluppo di una pipeline di ML ottimizzata, progettata per distinguere i pazienti (P) dai controlli sani (HC) e i casi ROP dai ROD , allenata su dati di risonanza magnetica strutturale e funzionale (RM) raccolti dal consorzio PRONIA in uno studio europeo multicentrico che comprende 506 soggetti. Riconoscendola potenziale influenza dell’abuso di sostanze, è stata esplorata anche la possibilità di incorporare il loro consumo come dato aggiuntivo. Per garantire la robustezza e la generalizzabilità del modello, è stato implementato uno schema di nested cross validation, caratterizzato da un design unico capace di integrare gli strumenti di correzione dei fattoriconfondenti ai sistemi di ottimizzazione. Una meticolosa selezione delle tecniche di feature selection e di ottimizzazione più performanti, che ha incluso filter methods e algoritmi genetici (AG), è stata condotta. Infine, i valori di Shapley e le tecniche di permutation importance sono state utilizzate per ottenere preziose informazioni sul processo decisionale del modello.  \nGli AG hanno dimostrato il loro potenziale per le applicazioni nella diagnosi psichiatrica; utilizzati sia","cbCaifG9BG6xTPdv","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifG9BG6xTPdv","pdf",6199818,1,118,"English","en",105,"# Introduction and Aim\n## Background\n## State Of the Art\n## Confounding variables\n## Biomarkers discovery and predictive models\n## Machine learning in diagnostic applications\n## Classification with machine learning techniques\n## Validation\n## Model interpretation","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the study address in psychiatric diagnosis?\",\"answer\":\"It targets the difficulty of distinguishing recent-onset psychosis (ROP) from depression (ROD), which is often limited by subjective symptom-based clinical evaluation.\"},{\"question\":\"Which data and participants are used to train and evaluate the pipeline?\",\"answer\":\"The pipeline uses structural and functional MRI data from 506 participants from the multi-site European PRONIA study, including healthy controls and patients.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the method ensure robustness and generalizability?\",\"answer\":\"It uses a nested cross-validation scheme that includes a design for confounder correction and optimization tools.\"}]","Towards early psychosis and depression prediction -
