Abstract
This paper introduced Alzheimer´s disease (AD) simulation with a brain network simulator. Several AD models about the time course of structural and functional changes of the human brain are firstly reviewed. Then, a spatiotemporal model for AD simulation is proposed. By applying the model, we can observe structural and functional dynamics of the human brain affected by AD with the brain network simulator. This research helps the studies of the changes of the human brain correlated to AD.
