Feature selection-based Risk Prediction for Hypertension in Korean men

한국 남성의 고혈압에 대한 특징 선택 기반 위험 예측

In this article, we have improved the prediction of hypertension detection using the feature selection method for the Korean national health data named by the KNHANES database. The study identified a variety of risk factors associated with chronic hypertension. The paper is divided into two modules. The first of these is a data pre-processing step that uses a factor analysis (FA) based feature selection method from the dataset. The next module applies a predictive analysis step to detect and predict hypertension risk prediction. In this study, we compare the mean standard error (MSE), F1-score, and area under the ROC curve (AUC) for each classification model. The test results show that the proposed FIFA-OE-NB algorithm has an MSE, F1-score, and AUC outcomes 0.259, 0.460, and 64.70%, respectively. These results demonstrate that the proposed FIFA-OE method outperforms other models for hypertension risk predictions.
