Mild cognitive impairment (MCI), which represents an intermediate clinical stage between cognitively normal aging and AD. Structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) provides detailed characterization of anatomical structures and plays an important role in AD-related brain analysis. However, existing sMRI-based brain network methods typically rely on a single graph construction strategy, limiting their ability to jointly capture spatial relationships and morphological similarities between brain regions. To address these issues, this paper proposes an sMRI-based multi-view masked graph neural network model (MVMGNN) for AD diagnosis. A joint node-edge masking mechanism is proposed to simultaneously select radiomics feature dimensions and structural connections, reducing redundancy during graph learning. Furthermore, a patient-level cross-view gated fusion mechanism is proposed to integrate multi-view representations. Experimental results on the ADNI dataset demonstrate that MVMGNN outperforms several competing approaches in AD classification. Interpretability analysis further demonstrates that MVMGNN is able to identify key brain regions associated with AD, providing useful insights into discriminative patterns in sMRI-based brain networks.Our implementation is publicly available at https://github.com/chenzhao2023/MVMGNN_AD", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/mvmgnn-multi-view-masked-graph-neural-network-for-alzheimer-s-disease-diagnosis", "canonical_source": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.09788", "published_at": "2026-07-14 04:00:00+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-07-14 04:03:58.739388+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["machine-learning", "neural-networks", "artificial-intelligence"], "entities": ["MVMGNN", "ADNI"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/mvmgnn-multi-view-masked-graph-neural-network-for-alzheimer-s-disease-diagnosis", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/mvmgnn-multi-view-masked-graph-neural-network-for-alzheimer-s-disease-diagnosis.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/mvmgnn-multi-view-masked-graph-neural-network-for-alzheimer-s-disease-diagnosis.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/mvmgnn-multi-view-masked-graph-neural-network-for-alzheimer-s-disease-diagnosis.jsonld"}}
