Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a neurological disorder due to the loss of neurons that produce dopamine and it affects motor functions. Monitoring disease progression and detecting disease early are the challenges that patients often face as traditional diagnostic methods for PD are expensive and rely majorly on subjective assessments. This study leverages machine learning specially ensemble learning techniques to predict PD progression using voice analysis. The Parkinson’s Telemonitoring Voice Dataset is used to train and test various ensemble models like CART, Random Forest Regressor, AdaBoost Regressor and Random Forest-AdaBoost Ensemble technique to predict both motor UPDRS and total UPDRS scores. Among the models tested, Random Forest-AdaBoost Ensemble technique achieved the highest R2 values of 0.966 and 0.961for Motor and Total UPDRS, respectively.

摘要

Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a neurological disorder due to the loss of neurons that produce dopamine and it affects motor functions. Monitoring disease progression and detecting disease early are the challenges that patients often face as traditional diagnostic methods for PD are expensive and rely majorly on subjective assessments. This study leverages machine learning specially ensemble learning techniques to predict PD progression using voice analysis. The Parkinson’s Telemonitoring Voice Dataset is used to train and test various ensemble models like CART, Random Forest Regressor, AdaBoost Regressor and Random Forest-AdaBoost Ensemble technique to predict both motor UPDRS and total UPDRS scores. Among the models tested, Random Forest-AdaBoost Ensemble technique achieved the highest R2 values of 0.966 and 0.961for Motor and Total UPDRS, respectively.
