GNN model for classification of SARS-CoV-2 severity in molecules
Abstract
In a time when healthcare issues and diseases get more complex every day, it becomes
evident that efficient and precise disease detection and classification are invaluable.
Through the quick development of machine learning methods and artificial intel
ligence, there are now new and revolutionary techniques for disease detection and
diagnosis. Conventional methods of detecting a disease may oversimplify this com
plex relationship of dependence and reflection inside a bundle of dataset comprising
extremely heterogeneous symptoms and pathologies. Therefore, conventional meth
ods may fail to provide enough feedback and inputs to the medical unit. The main
topic of this thesis is the usage of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to spot and di
agnose diseases. Particularly, this analysis focuses on the ability of GNNs to assess
COVID-19 severity based on the SMILES dataset. Particularly, this analysis focuses
on the ability of GNNs to assess COVID-19 severity based on the SMILES dataset.
This study proves that by exploiting the capacity of GNNs, GNNs can deliver the
precision required for prompt interventions, and this results in improved patients’
outcomes and an effective healthcare system. The experimental results are highly
promising, with GNNs achieving an accuracy of 87.16%, an F1 score of 82.63%, a
precision of 84.27%, and a recall of 81.06% for Version 1 (not considering inactive
cases), and an accuracy of 69.52%, an F1 score of 71.28%, a precision of 65.42%,
and a recall of 78.30% for Version 2 (considering all cases — active, intermediate,
and inactive). These data show that the GNNs approach is a successful method of
classifying the level of severity of COVID-19 correctly by the way they depict the
complicated connections of the dataset. This marks an ideal balance between the
two metrics of precision and recall, suggesting that the model can correctly identify
the cases and also minimize false negatives. This becomes even more important in
a healthcare setting where the cost of misdiagnosis is extremely high. The article
in general illustrates the capabilities of GNNs in transforming the process of disease
diagnosis into a more efficient, effective, and accurate one, which can have a pro
found meaning for doctors, patients, and other healthcare providers.
