The ADNI Administrative Core: Ensuring ADNI's success and informing future AD clinical trials
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) Administrative Core oversees and coordinates all ADNI activities, to ensure the success and maximize the impact of ADNI in advancing Alzheimer's disease (AD) research and clinical trials. It manages finances and develops policies for data sharing, publications using ADNI data, and access to ADNI biospecimens. The Core develops and executes pilot projects to guide future ADNI activities and identifies key innovative methods for inclusion in ADNI. For ADNI4, the Administrative Core collaborates with the Engagement, Clinical, and Biomarker Cores to develop and evaluate novel, digital methods and infrastructure for participant recruitment, screening, and assessment of participants. The goal of these efforts is to enroll 500 participants, including > 50% from underrepresented populations, 40% with mild cognitive impairment, and 80% with elevated AD biomarkers. This new approach also provides a unique opportunity to validate novel methods. HIGHLIGHTS: The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) Administrative Core oversees and coordinates all ADNI activities. The overall goal is to ensure ADNI's success and help design future Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials. A key innovation is data sharing without embargo to maximize scientific impact. For ADNI4, novel, digital methods for recruitment and assessment were developed. New methods are designed to improve the participation of underrepresented populations.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
