Late feature fusion using neural network with voting classifier for Parkinson's disease detection.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is classified as a neurological, progressive illness brought on by cell death in the posterior midbrain. Early PD detection will assist doctors in reducing the disease's consequences. A collection of skilled models that may be applied to regression as well as classification is known as artificial intelligence (AI). PD can be detected using a variety of dataset formats, including text, speech, and picture datasets. For the purpose of classifying Parkinson's disease, this study suggests merging deep with machine learning recognition approaches. The three primary components of the suggested approach are designed to enhance the accuracy of Parkinson's disease early diagnosis. These sections cover the topics of categorising, combining, and separating. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) as well as attention procedures are used to create feature extractors. The related motion signals are fed to a combination of convolutional neural network and long-short-memory model for feature extraction. Besides, for the classification of patients from non-suffers of Parkinson's disease, Random Forest, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, Extreme Boot Classifier, and voting classifier were used. Our result shows that for the PD handwriting and related motion datasets, using the proposed CNN with an attention and voting classifier yields 99.95% accuracy, 99.99% precision, 99.98% sensitivity, and 99.95% F1-score. Based on these results, it is warranted to conclude that the proposed methodology of feature extraction from photos of handwriting and relating motor symptoms, fusing of those features, and following it with a voting classifier yields excellent results for PD classification.
