Abstract
Hepatitis is a major global health issue, impacting millions worldwide. Early detection and precise diagnosis are essential for effective treatment and preventing complications. This study proposes a predictive model for hepatitis diagnosis using ensemble feature selection techniques and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS). The goal is to develop a robust and accurate model to assist healthcare professionals in promptly diagnosing hepatitis cases. The methodology follows the CRISP-DM framework, including data collection, preprocessing, ensemble feature selection, ANFIS model development, and evaluation using performance metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. Publicly available hepatitis datasets are utilized for experimentation and validation. The results demonstrate that ensemble feature selection effectively identifies informative hepatitis diagnosis features, enhancing the model's predictive performance. The ANFIS model, trained on the selected features, achieves high accuracy and balanced performance metrics, indicating its effectiveness in accurately diagnosing hepatitis cases. The implications include early hepatitis detection, healthcare resource optimization, and potential for personalized medicine. Future directions involve integrating additional data sources, continuous model refinement, and clinical validation studies. This study contributes to advancing predictive modeling for hepatitis diagnosis and highlights the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration between healthcare and data science disciplines in addressing global health challenges.
