- Abstract
Recently, a standard dataset namely SCADI (Self-Care Activities Dataset) based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health for Children and Youth framework for self-care problems identification of children with physical and motor disabilities was introduced. This is a very interesting, important and challenging topic due to its usefulness in medical diagnosis. This study proposes a robust framework using a sampling technique and extreme gradient boosting (FSX) to improve the prediction performance for the SCADI dataset. The proposed framework first converts the original dataset to a new dataset with a smaller number of dimensions. Then, our proposed framework balances the new dataset in the previous step using oversampling techniques with different ratios. Next, extreme gradient boosting was used to diagnose the problems. The experiments in terms of prediction performance and feature importance were conducted to show the effectiveness of FSX as well as to analyse the results. The experimental results show that FSX that uses the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) for the oversampling module outperforms the ANN (Artificial Neural Network) -based approach, Support vector machine (SVM) and Random Forest for the SCADI dataset. The overall accuracy of the proposed framework reaches 85.4%, a pretty high performance, which can be used for self-care problem classification in medical diagnosis.
