Early Stratification of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) by building and evaluating machine learning models

Sharma, Vibhor January 2020 (has links)
Gestational diabetes Mellitus (GDM), a condition involving abnormal levels of glucose in the blood plasma has seen a rapid surge amongst the gestating mothers belonging to different regions and ethnicities around the world. Cur- rent method of screening and diagnosing GDM is restricted to Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT). With the advent of machine learning algorithms, the healthcare has seen a surge of machine learning methods for disease diag- nosis which are increasingly being employed in a clinical setup. Yet in the area of GDM, there has not been wide spread utilization of these algorithms to generate multi-parametric diagnostic models to aid the clinicians for the aforementioned condition diagnosis.In literature, there is an evident scarcity of application of machine learn- ing algorithms for the GDM diagnosis. It has been limited to the proposed use of some very simple algorithms like logistic regression. Hence, we have attempted to address this research gap by employing a wide-array of machine learning algorithms, known to be effective for binary classification, for GDM classification early on amongst gestating mother. This can aid the clinicians for early diagnosis of GDM and will offer chances to mitigate the adverse out- comes related to GDM among the gestating mother and their progeny.We set up an empirical study to look into the performance of different ma- chine learning algorithms used specifically for the task of GDM classification. These algorithms were trained on a set of chosen predictor variables by the ex- perts. Then compared the results with the existing machine learning methods in the literature for GDM classification based on a set of performance metrics. Our model couldn’t outperform the already proposed machine learning mod- els for GDM classification. We could attribute it to our chosen set of predictor variable and the under reporting of various performance metrics like precision in the existing literature leading to a lack of informed comparison. / Graviditetsdiabetes Mellitus (GDM), ett tillstånd som involverar onormala ni- våer av glukos i blodplasma har haft en snabb kraftig ökning bland de drab- bade mammorna som tillhör olika regioner och etniciteter runt om i världen. Den nuvarande metoden för screening och diagnos av GDM är begränsad till Oralt glukosetoleranstest (OGTT). Med tillkomsten av maskininlärningsalgo- ritmer har hälso- och sjukvården sett en ökning av maskininlärningsmetoder för sjukdomsdiagnos som alltmer används i en klinisk installation. Ändå inom GDM-området har det inte använts stor spridning av dessa algoritmer för att generera multiparametriska diagnostiska modeller för att hjälpa klinikerna för ovannämnda tillståndsdiagnos.I litteraturen finns det en uppenbar brist på tillämpning av maskininlär- ningsalgoritmer för GDM-diagnosen. Det har begränsats till den föreslagna användningen av några mycket enkla algoritmer som logistisk regression. Där- för har vi försökt att ta itu med detta forskningsgap genom att använda ett brett spektrum av maskininlärningsalgoritmer, kända för att vara effektiva för binär klassificering, för GDM-klassificering tidigt bland gesterande mamma. Det- ta kan hjälpa klinikerna för tidig diagnos av GDM och kommer att erbjuda chanser att mildra de negativa utfallen relaterade till GDM bland de dödande mamma och deras avkommor.Vi inrättade en empirisk studie för att undersöka prestandan för olika ma- skininlärningsalgoritmer som används specifikt för uppgiften att klassificera GDM. Dessa algoritmer tränades på en uppsättning valda prediktorvariabler av experterna. Jämfört sedan resultaten med de befintliga maskininlärnings- metoderna i litteraturen för GDM-klassificering baserat på en uppsättning pre- standametriker. Vår modell kunde inte överträffa de redan föreslagna maskininlärningsmodellerna för GDM-klassificering. Vi kunde tillskriva den valda uppsättningen prediktorvariabler och underrapportering av olika prestanda- metriker som precision i befintlig litteratur vilket leder till brist på informerad jämförelse.

Big data management for periodic wireless sensor networks / Gestion de données volumineuses dans les réseaux de capteurs périodiques

Medlej, Maguy 30 June 2014 (has links)
Les recherches présentées dans ce mémoire s’inscrivent dans le cadre des réseaux decapteurs périodiques. Elles portent sur l’étude et la mise en oeuvre d’algorithmes et de protocolesdistribués dédiés à la gestion de données volumineuses, en particulier : la collecte, l’agrégation etla fouille de données. L’approche de la collecte de données permet à chaque noeud d’adapter sontaux d’échantillonnage à l’évolution dynamique de l’environnement. Par ce modèle le suréchantillonnageest réduit et par conséquent la quantité d’énergie consommée. Elle est basée surl’étude de la dépendance de la variance de mesures captées pendant une même période voirpendant plusieurs périodes différentes. Ensuite, pour sauvegarder plus de l’énergie, un modèled’adpatation de vitesse de collecte de données est étudié. Ce modèle est basé sur les courbes debézier en tenant compte des exigences des applications. Dans un second lieu, nous étudions unetechnique pour la réduction de la taille de données massive qui est l’agrégation de données. Lebut est d’identifier tous les noeuds voisins qui génèrent des séries de données similaires. Cetteméthode est basée sur les fonctions de similarité entre les ensembles de mesures et un modèle defiltrage par fréquence. La troisième partie est consacrée à la fouille de données. Nous proposonsune adaptation de l’approche k-means clustering pour classifier les données en clusters similaires,d’une manière à l’appliquer juste sur les préfixes des séries de mesures au lieu de l’appliquer auxséries complètes. Enfin, toutes les approches proposées ont fait l’objet d’études de performancesapprofondies au travers de simulation (OMNeT++) et comparées aux approches existantes dans lalittérature. / This thesis proposes novel big data management techniques for periodic sensor networksembracing the limitations imposed by wsn and the nature of sensor data. First, we proposed anadaptive sampling approach for periodic data collection allowing each sensor node to adapt itssampling rates to the physical changing dynamics. It is based on the dependence of conditionalvariance of measurements over time. Then, we propose a multiple level activity model that usesbehavioral functions modeled by modified Bezier curves to define application classes and allowfor sampling adaptive rate. Moving forward, we shift gears to address the periodic dataaggregation on the level of sensor node data. For this purpose, we introduced two tree-based bilevelperiodic data aggregation techniques for periodic sensor networks. The first one look on aperiodic basis at each data measured at the first tier then, clean it periodically while conservingthe number of occurrences of each measure captured. Secondly, data aggregation is performedbetween groups of nodes on the level of the aggregator while preserving the quality of theinformation. We proposed a new data aggregation approach aiming to identify near duplicatenodes that generate similar sets of collected data in periodic applications. We suggested the prefixfiltering approach to optimize the computation of similarity values and we defined a new filteringtechnique based on the quality of information to overcome the data latency challenge. Last butnot least, we propose a new data mining method depending on the existing K-means clusteringalgorithm to mine the aggregated data and overcome the high computational cost. We developeda new multilevel optimized version of « k-means » based on prefix filtering technique. At the end,all the proposed approaches for data management in periodic sensor networks are validatedthrough simulation results based on real data generated by periodic wireless sensor network.
