Prediction of Stroke Using Deep Learning Model

Abstract

Many predictive techniques have been widely applied in clinical decision making such as predicting occurrence of a disease or diagnosis, evaluating prognosis or outcome of diseases and assisting clinicians to recommend treatment of diseases. However, the conventional predictive models or techniques are still not effective enough in capturing the underlying knowledge because it is incapable of simulating the complexity on feature representation of the medical problem domains. This research reports predictive analytical techniques for stroke using deep learning model applied on heart disease dataset. The atrial fibrillation symptoms in heart patients are a major risk factor of stroke and share common variables to predict stroke. The outcomes of this research are more accurate than medical scoring systems currently in use for warning heart patients if they are likely to develop stroke.
