Oral Cancer Risk Prediction Model
Authors: , ,
Abstract: Oral cancer is a serious disease that has become very common and affects a lot of people today. Early detection and risk assessment are essential to prevent this disease. This study aims to analyze the risks of developing the disease by using conventional equation method and machine learning. The risk factors are studied based on previous literature and the weightages for each factor are estimated based on the data. Machine learning method is utilized to further improve the efficiency of the risk prediction model. The results using the machine learning method have proven to be almost similar to the results using conventional equation method.
