Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has widely spread all over the world since December2019. This pandemic poses a great threat and challenge to global health and economy. The COVID-19 diagnosis and treatment is very complex, because of its unknown many characteristics. Thus it is crucial to have a framework for an early of its prediction. In this regard, Machines Learning (ML) could be the crucial to extracting high-quality predictive models and concealed patterns from mining of huge raw datasets.
Purpose: At this juncture, we aimed to apply different ML models to discover correlations in COVID-19 data that could help improving prediction rate. Additionally, their potential was evaluated to find the best classifier which gives better accuracy. Material and Methods: The dataset of Talleghani hospital, COVID-19 focal center affiliated to Abadan University of Medical Sciences have been taken into consideration. ML algorithms such as Naïve Bayesian (NB), Bayesian Net (BN), Random Forest (RF), Multilayer Perceptron ( MLP ), K-star, C4.5, and Support Vector Machine ( SVM ) were developed. Then the recital of selected ML models was assessed by comparison of some performance indices such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, F-score, and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC).
