Feature Description

XGBoost Strengths:

Optimized for speed and performance.
Works great with structured/tabular data.
Handles missing data efficiently.
Good for dealing with imbalanced datasets.

Best for:

Complex datasets where features interact in non-obvious ways.
Cases where accuracy is more important than making the model easy to explain.

LightGBM Strengths:

Very fast training, even on large datasets.
Works well with many features and can handle missing or sparse data.
Best for:

Large datasets with many rows and columns.
Often faster than XGBoost while still giving good accuracy.
Accuracy potential:

Similar or slightly better than XGBoost, especially for large or high-dimensional data.
Best use-case:

If you need faster training while maintaining accuracy similar to XGBoost.

As of now in the project these have used with 96% highest accuracy

Logistic Regression
Decision Tree Classifier
Random Forest Classifier
Gradient Boosting Classifier

Use Case

Use Case:
Scenario: Expecting mothers go for regular check-ups during pregnancy, where doctors monitor the health of the fetus using tests like Cardiotocogram (CTG).

Problem: Sometimes, it’s hard to tell if a fetus is healthy or if there might be problems. Mistakes can happen, leading to undetected issues that could harm the baby or mother.

Solution: Use machine learning models to analyze the CTG data and classify the fetal health into three categories: normal, suspect, and pathological.

Benefits

Early Detection of Risks: Better accuracy helps find problems early, allowing timely medical help for mothers and babies.

Reducing Infant Mortality: Accurate predictions lower the chances of stillbirths and deaths by identifying high-risk pregnancies needing extra care.

Better Resource Allocation: Hospitals can use resources wisely, focusing on high-risk cases for timely support.

Improved Maternal Health: Accurate predictions lower the risk of undiagnosed issues, helping to keep mothers healthy during childbirth.

Increased Trust in Technology: Higher accuracy builds trust in AI tools, helping doctors and families rely on technology for better care.

Reducing Healthcare Costs: Finding problems early cuts down on expensive emergencies and long-term care needs.
