Özet
Objective: Stroke is a prominent life-threatening disease in the world. The current study
was performed to predict the outcome of stroke using knowledge discovery process (KDP)
methods, artificial neural networks (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) models.
Materials and methods: The records of 297 (130 sick and 167 healthy) individuals were acquired
from the databases of the department of emergency medicine. Nine predictors (coronary
artery disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, history of cerebrovascular disease, atrial
fibrillation, smoking, the findings of carotid Doppler ultrasonography [normal, plaque,
plaque + stenosis ≥ 50%], the levels of cholesterol and C-reactive protein) were used for predicting
the stroke. Feature selection based on the Cramer’s V test was carried outfor reducing
the predictors. Multilayer perceptron (MLP) ANN and SVM with radial basis function (RBF)
kernel were used for the prediction based on the selected predictors.
Results: The accuracy values were 81.82% for ANN and 80.38% for SVM in the training dataset
(n = 209), and 85.9% for ANN and 84.62% for SVM in the testing dataset (n = 78), respectively.
ANN and SVM models yielded area under curve (AUC) values of 0.905 and 0.899 in the training
dataset, and 0.928 and 0.91 in the testing dataset, consecutively.
Conclusion: The findings of the current study pointed out that ANN had more predictive
performance when compared with SVM in predicting stroke. The proposed ANN model
would be useful when making clinical decisions regarding stroke
