Academics and the health community are paying much attention to developing smart remote patient monitoring, sensors, and healthcare technology. For the analysis of medical scans, various studies integrate sophisticated deep learning strategies. A smart monitoring system is needed as a proactive diagnostic solution that may be employed in an epidemiological scenario such as COVID-19. Consequently, this work offers an intelligent medicare system that is an IoT-empowered, deep learning-based decision support system (DSS) for the automated detection and categorization of infectious diseases (COVID-19 and pneumothorax). The proposed DSS system was evaluated using three independent standard-based chest X-ray scans. The suggested DSS predictor has been used to identify and classify areas on whole X-ray scans with abnormalities thought to be attributable to COVID-19, reaching an identification and classification accuracy rate of 89.58% for normal images and 89.13% for COVID-19 and pneumothorax. With the suggested DSS system, a judgment depending on individual chest X-ray scans may be made in approximately 0.01 s. As a result, the DSS system described in this study can forecast at a pace of 95 frames per second (FPS) for both models, which is near to real-time.

Pristine and trustworthy data are required for efficient computer modelling for medical decision-making, yet data in medical care is frequently missing. As a result, missing values may occur not just in training data but also in testing data that might contain a single undiagnosed episode or a participant. This study evaluates different imputation and regression procedures identified based on regressor performance and computational expense to fix the issues of missing values in both training and testing datasets. In the context of healthcare, several procedures are introduced for dealing with missing values. However, there is still a discussion concerning which imputation strategies are better in specific cases. This research proposes an ensemble imputation model that is educated to use a combination of simple mean imputation, k-nearest neighbour imputation, and iterative imputation methods, and then leverages them in a manner where the ideal imputation strategy is opted among them based on attribute correlations on missing value features. We introduce a unique Ensemble Strategy for Missing Value to analyse healthcare data with considerable missing values to identify unbiased and accurate prediction statistical modelling. The performance metrics have been generated using the eXtreme gradient boosting regressor, random forest regressor, and support vector regressor. The current study uses real-world healthcare data to conduct experiments and simulations of data with varying feature-wise missing frequencies indicating that the proposed technique surpasses standard missing value imputation approaches as well as the approach of dropping records holding missing values in terms of accuracy.
