DESIGN THINKING
1. Data Source
Action: We acquired a comprehensive diabetes dataset from reputable sources,
including medical records, patient history, and lifestyle information.
Rationale: Utilizing a high-quality dataset is critical for building an accurate
diabetes prediction model
2. Data Preprocessing
Action: We thoroughly cleaned and preprocessed the dataset, addressing issues
such as missing values, outliers, and normalization.
Rationale: Proper data preprocessing ensures data consistency and quality.
3. Feature Extraction
Action: Feature engineering involved creating relevant features from clinical and
lifestyle data, including blood sugar levels, BMI, and dietary habits.
Rationale: Effective feature engineering improves the model's ability to predict
diabetes accurately.
4. Model Selection
Action: We chose a machine learning model, specifically a gradient boosting
algorithm, for its ability to handle complex medical data.
Rationale: The model's choice plays a vital role in the system's predictive
capabilities.
5.Model Training
Action: Model training and hyperparameter tuning were carried out to optimize the
model's performance.
Rationale: Fine-tuning ensures that the model is precise in predicting diabetes risk
6.Evaluation
Action: Evaluate the model's performance using metrics like accuracy, precision,
recall, F1-score, and ROC-AUC.
Rationale: Model evaluation is essential to assess how well the diabetes prediction
system is performing. The selected metrics provide insights into various aspects of
the model's performance:
Accuracy:Measures the overall correctness of the model's predictions.
Precision: Assesses the proportion of true positive predictions among all positive
predictions, indicating the model's ability to avoid false positives.
Recall: Evaluates the proportion of true positive predictions among all actual
positives, showing the model's ability to capture genuine diabetes cases.
F1-score: Provides a balanced measure of model performance by taking the
harmonic mean of precision and recall.
ROC-AUC: Measures the model's ability to distinguish between positive and
negative cases.
5. BERT Integration
Action: Implement BERT-based models for feature extraction.
Rationale: BERT, as a pre-trained transformer model, excels at capturing
contextual information and relationships between words in a sentence. By utilizing
BERT embeddings, the model can gain a better understanding of the semantics in
patient health data, thereby improving its ability to represent complex language
constructs related to diabetes prediction.
6. LSTM Integration
Action: Incorporate LSTM layers into the neural network architecture.
Rationale: LSTM networks are effective in capturing sequential dependencies in
data. As health data, including diabetes-related data, often follows a sequential
structure (e.g., time series data), LSTM layers can enhance the model's ability to
understand temporal aspects in patient health records. This is particularly useful for
detecting patterns, trends, and changes related to diabetes.
CONCLUSION
This document has outlined the problem definition, design thinking approach, and
proposed enhancements using BERT and LSTM for developing an AI-based
diabetes prediction model. The integration of advanced techniques in natural
language processing and sequential data analysis aims to capture more nuanced
patterns and relationships within patient health data, ultimately increasing the
model's accuracy and effectiveness in diabetes prediction.
