Alzheimer-s disease is an incurable neurodegenerative disease primarily affecting the elderly population. Efficient automated techniques are needed for early diagnosis of Alzheimer-s. Many novel approaches are proposed by researchers for classification of Alzheimer-s disease. However, to develop more efficient learning techniques, better understanding of the work done on Alzheimer-s is needed. Here, we provide a review on 165 papers from 2005 to 2019, using various feature extraction and machine learning techniques. The machine learning techniques are surveyed under three main categories: support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), and deep learning (DL) and ensemble methods. We present a detailed review on these three approaches for Alzheimer-s with possible future directions.
