A Hypertuned Pipeline Vector Using Meta Classifier Technique for Feature Selection in Multi Disease Prediction

Abstract

Automation of health sector plays a very important role especially during this pandemic due to the side effects of either vaccination or attack of the COVID. Most of the researchers designed a system to predict whether a person suffers from a particular disease or not. Few researchers worked on prediction variants of a single disease based on symptoms but due to this COVID-19, different people are getting attacked with different diseases as a side effect. This proposed system aims to identify the multiple diseases that a person may suffer from based on the symptoms. In this paper, the dataset obtained from the open access repository “Kaggle” contains 17 symptoms combinations to identify the one of the 41 types of diseases as class label. All the symptoms may not be important for identification, so in this model, the important features are identified using the pipeline vector of different Machine Learning approaches are passed as base line classifier and decision tree classifier as meta line to the elimination function. The model has got “99.48%” accuracy for selecting the essential features using bagging and boosting algorithms.
