Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is viewed as a significant health issue worldwide. Treating this disease early is crucial to prevent it from causing further problems. Researchers have been using different machine learning-based approaches to predict this disease in recent years. The focus of this paper is on a stacked ensemble model that can be used to predict CKD. The proposed model is applied to an open-access CKD dataset. The dataset is made suitable for classification by undergoing several pre-processing steps. The proposed model comprises two phases. First, the prediction process was performed using base classifiers. Then, the stacked ensemble model is used to combine these base classifiers in the best way. The recursive feature elimination technique is used to select the most discriminative features. The optimal hyperparameters for classification algorithms are determined using the hyperparameter optimization technique. When compared to other base classifiers, the suggested stacked model achieves 100% accuracy. Furthermore, the proposed model is compared to various approaches in the literature and achieved a high classification rate.

Yığılmış Topluluk Tabanlı Model ile Kronik Böbrek Hastalığı Tahmini

Öz

Kronik böbrek hastalığı (KBH) dünya genelinde önemli bir sağlık problemi olarak kabul edilmektedir. Daha fazla soruna yol açmasını önlemek için bu hastalığın erken dönemde tedavi edilmesi çok önemlidir. Araştırmacılar son yıllarda bu hastalığı tahmin etmek için farklı makine öğrenimi tabanlı yaklaşımlar kullanmaktadır. Bu makalenin odak noktası, KBH'yi tahmin etmek için kullanılabilecek yığılmış bir topluluk modelidir. Önerilen model açık erişimli bir CKD veri setine uygulanmıştır. Veri kümesi, çeşitli ön işleme adımlarından geçirilerek sınıflandırma için uygun hale getirilmiştir. Önerilen topluluk modeli iki aşamadan oluşmaktadır. İlk olarak, tahmin işlemi temel sınıflandırıcılar kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ardından, bu temel sınıflandırıcıları en iyi şekilde birleştirmek için yığılmış topluluk modeli kullanılır. En ayırt edici öznitelikleri seçmek için özyinelemeli öznitelik eleme tekniği kullanılmıştır. Hiperparametre optimizasyon tekniği kullanılarak sınıflandırma algoritmaları için en uygun hiperparametreler belirlenmiştir. Diğer temel sınıflandırıcılarla karşılaştırıldığında, önerilen yığılmış model %100 doğruluk elde etmektedir. Ayrıca, önerilen model literatürdeki farklı yaklaşımlara karşı değerlendirilmiş ve yüksek bir sınıflandırma oranına ulaşmıştır.
