Application of Data Mining Algorithms for Dementia in People with HIV/AIDS

Abstract

Dementia interferes with the individual’s motor, behavioural, and intellectual functions, causing him to be unable to perform instrumental activities of daily living. This study is aimed at identifying the best performing algorithm and the most relevant characteristics to categorise individuals with HIV/AIDS at high risk of dementia from the application of data mining. Principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm was used and tested comparatively between the following machine learning algorithms: logistic regression, decision tree, neural network, KNN, and random forest. The database used for this study was built from the data collection of 270 individuals infected with HIV/AIDS and followed up at the outpatient clinic of a reference hospital for infectious and parasitic diseases in the State of Ceará, Brazil, from January to April 2019. Also, the performance of the algorithms was analysed for the 104 characteristics available in the database; then, with the reduction of dimensionality, there was an improvement in the quality of the machine learning algorithms and identified that during the tests, even losing about 30% of the variation. Besides, when considering only 23 characteristics, the precision of the algorithms was 86% in random forest, 56% logistic regression, 68% decision tree, 60% KNN, and 59% neural network. The random forest algorithm proved to be more effective than the others, obtaining 84% precision and 86% accuracy.

“…Pengertian data mining itu sendiri yaitu salah satu proses eksplorasi data yang mampu https://digital-science.pubmedia.id/index.php/pslse memprediksi dan mengekstraksi pola yang konsisten dengan menggunakan strategi seperti algoritma pembelajaran dengan kecerdasan artifikal (AI), atau klasifikasi dalam statistik yang dapat mengungkapkan hubungan tersembunyi dan data yang akurat. Aplikasi data mining merupakan suatu sistem informasi kesehatan di lingkungan publik dan swasta yang melalui proses seleksi, preprocessing dan transformasi data yang dapat mendiscover pola dan menghasilkan pengetahuan melalui interprestasi dari data yang diolah (Pinheiro et al, 2021).…”

“…Also, [28] engaged AI and textual mining to see if they could identify the most relevant characteristics found in PLWHA that lead to the development of dementia. The paper used multiple techniques to see which one was the most accurate including logistic regression, decision tree, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), neural network, and random forest.…”

“…The choice of the principal components analysis (PCA) [30] is motivated by the fact that the inertia of the first dimensions is an indicator of the possible existence of strong relationships between variables, as well as of the number of dimensions to be studied.…”
