Optimizing Healthcare Delivery through CloudBased Clinical Decision Support Systems

The experiment aims at evaluating how four machine learning algorithms work: Decision Tree, Random Forest, SVM, and Neural Network, in a task, of binary classification. Models were evaluated using comprehensive metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, F-score and AUC that revealed a good diagnostic performance. Models selected for the experiment and parameters tested on real datasets show steady changes in performance. The Neural Network model remained on top, achieving accuracy, precision, recall, F-score and AUC-ROC of 91.8%, 92.1%, 91.3%, 91.7% and 0.93 respectively. Random Forest displayed a competitive accordance along with the accuracy of 88.6%, precision of 89.2%, recall of 88.7%, and the F-score of 89.0%, and the AUC of 0.91. From the results, Support Vector Machine and Decision Tree models posted lower accuracy, recall, and fscores compared to the Neural Network and Random Forest models in most cases. These reveal the need for the improvement of the suitable machine learning model that comes from specific task needs as well as the consideration of each one of factors including accuracy, interpretability, and computational efficiency. Extensive and development of the model may result in more comprehensive understanding of how the model leads classifying of real-world applications such as medical diagnoses, fraud detection and target marketing.
