abstract = {Deep neural networks currently provide the most advanced
and accurate machine learning models to distinguish between
structural MRI scans of subjects with Alzheimer's disease
and healthy controls. Unfortunately, the subtle brain
alterations captured by these models are difficult to
interpret because of the complexity of these multi-layer and
non-linear models. Several heatmap methods have been
proposed to address this issue and analyze the imaging
patterns extracted from the deep neural networks, but no
quantitative comparison between these methods has been
carried out so far. In this work, we explore these questions
by deriving heatmaps from Convolutional Neural Networks
(CNN) trained using T1 MRI scans of the ADNI data set and by
comparing these heatmaps with brain maps corresponding to
Support Vector Machine (SVM) activation patterns. Three
prominent heatmap methods are studied: Layer-wise Relevance
Propagation (LRP), Integrated Gradients (IG), and Guided
Grad-CAM (GGC). Contrary to prior studies where the quality
of heatmaps was visually or qualitatively assessed, we
obtained precise quantitative measures by computing overlap
with a ground-truth map from a large meta-analysis that
combined 77 voxel-based morphometry (VBM) studies
independently from ADNI. Our results indicate that all three
heatmap methods were able to capture brain regions covering
the meta-analysis map and achieved better results than SVM
