Abstract

Currently the hospital is a place that is very vulnerable to the transmission of Covid-19, so giving birth in a hospital is very risky. In addition, the hospital currently only accepts cesarean deliveries, while mothers who can give birth vaginally are recommended to give birth in a midwife because the chances of being exposed to Covid-19 are much lower. In general, this study aims to examine the performance of the LDA-SVM method in predicting whether a prospective mother needs to undergo a C-section or simply give birth normally. The aims of this study are: 1) to determine the best parameters for building the detection model; 2) to determine the best accuracy from the model; 3) to compare the accuracies with the other methods. The data used in this study is the dataset of caesarian section. This data consists of the results of 80 pregnant women following C-section with the most important characteristics of labor problems in the clinical field. Based on the results of the experiments that have been carried out, several parameter values that provide the best results for building the detection model are obtained, namely σ (sigma) –5.9 for 70 % training data, σ=4, –6.1 and ‑6.6 for 80 % training data and σ=4 and 16 for 90 % training data. Besides, the results obtained show that the LDA-SVM method is able to classify the C-section method properly with an accuracy of up to 100 %. This research is also able to surpass the methods in previous studies. The results show that LDA-SVM for this case study generates an accuracy of 100.00 %. This method has great potential to be used by doctors used as an early detection to determine whether a mother needs to go through a C-section or simply give birth vaginally. So that mothers can prevent the transmission of Covid-19 in the hospital

Highlights

  • Giving birth in a hospital during the Covid-19 outbreak is very risky, this is because the hospital is a very vulnerable place for transmitting Covid-19

  • The results showed that the Support Vector Machines (SVM) method combined with Kernel RBF on pre-processed data could produce high sensitivity and specificity values for detecting Parkinson’s disease

  • The aim of the study is to examine the performance of the Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA)-SVM method in predicting whether a prospective mother needs to undergo a C-section or give birth normally

Summary

Introduction

Giving birth in a hospital during the Covid-19 outbreak is very risky, this is because the hospital is a very vulnerable place for transmitting Covid-19. The doctor will recommend a C-section if your pregnancy is at risk. C-section should generally be done if you experience certain complications in pregnancy These complications can usually complicate the process of giving birth normally or through the vagina. Even if forced to carry out normal childbirth, the risk is endangering the health and safety of the mother and baby. This is where the doctor will suggest the option of having a C-section delivery. By obtaining the parameters needed to build an optimal model, this system is expected to help the medical field to make an early diagnosis of the birth method before taking action for cesarean section or normal delivery
