Comparison of Diagnosis Accuracy between a Backpropagation Artificial Neural Network Model and Linear Regression in Digestive Disease Patients: an Empirical Research

Abstract

Introduction. A Noninvasive diagnosis model for digestive diseases is the vital issue for the current clinical research. Our systematic review is aimed at demonstrating diagnosis accuracy between the BP-ANN algorithm and linear regression in digestive disease patients, including their activation function and data structure. Methods. We reported the systematic review according to the PRISMA guidelines. We searched related articles from seven electronic scholarly databases for comparison of the diagnosis accuracy focusing on BP-ANN and linear regression. The characteristics, patient number, input/output marker, diagnosis accuracy, and results/conclusions related to comparison were extracted independently based on inclusion criteria. Results. Nine articles met all the criteria and were enrolled in our review. Of those enrolled articles, the publishing year ranged from 1991 to 2017. The sample size ranged from 42 to 3222 digestive disease patients, and all of the patients showed comparable biomarkers between the BP-ANN algorithm and linear regression. According to our study, 8 literature demonstrated that the BP-ANN model is superior to linear regression in predicting the disease outcome based on AUROC results. One literature reported linear regression to be superior to BP-ANN for the early diagnosis of colorectal cancer. Conclusion. The BP-ANN algorithm and linear regression both had high capacity in fitting the diagnostic model and BP-ANN displayed more prediction accuracy for the noninvasive diagnosis model of digestive diseases. We compared the activation functions and data structure between BP-ANN and linear regression for fitting the diagnosis model, and the data suggested that BP-ANN was a comprehensive recommendation algorithm.

Altered spontaneous brain activities in maintenance hemodialysis patients with cognitive dysfunction and the construction of cognitive function prediction models

“…In order to further improve the arti cial decision-making process, the construction and application of disease prediction model play an important reference value for disease screening, and prediction model has become a research hotspot in the eld of MCI risk prediction. This study will use the Back propagation neural network (BPNN) to predict cognitive function, and a large number of experimental tests and theoretical studies have shown that the BPNN algorithm is a kind e cient learning algorithms, which has been shown to have better diagnostic e cacy than the logistic regression model in several elds, it has good self-learning and adaptive ability [13][14][15]. In this study, the mean ALFF/ fALFF/ ReHo values of the brain regions with signi cant between-group difference were used as neuroimaging markers, and clinical indicators related to cognitive function were incorporated into the BPNN to comprehensively assess the cognitive function of maintenance hemodialysis patients and facilitate early diagnosis.…”

Prediksi Kuantitas Penggunaan Obat pada Layanan Kesehatan Menggunakan Algoritma Backpropagation Neural Network

“…Performa dari kemampuan prediksi dapat diukur dari akurasi, presisi, MAPE atau Mean Absolute Percentage Error, dan lain-lain [11]. Algoritme Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) adalah salah satu jenis Artificial Neural Network [12]. Prinsip dasar BPNN adalah mempelajari sampel input, menilai kesalahan, memodifikasi bobot dan nilai ambang batas untuk mengurangi kesalahan, dan kemudian mengulangi berkali-kali untuk mendapatkan hubungan pemetaan yang optimal [13].…”

Convolutional Neural Networks in Computer-Aided Diagnosis of Colorectal Polyps and Cancer: A Review

“…In most medical studies, conventional or traditional models like logistic regression [22], linear regression, artificial neural networks [23], support vector machines [24], and random forest [25] are used for diagnostic purposes. In these models, features are extracted manually, and this technique is called hand-crafted feature extraction [26].…”
