Neuroimaging studies often involve the collection of multiple data modalities. These modalities contain both shared and mutually exclusive information about the brain. This work aims at finding a scalable and interpretable method to fuse the information of multiple neuroimaging modalities using a variational autoencoder (VAE). To provide an initial assessment, this work evaluates the representations that are learned using a schizophrenia classification task. A support vector machine trained on the representations achieves an area under the curve for the classifier's receiver operating characteristic (ROC-AUC) of 0.8610.
