A machine learning model to identify early stage symptoms of SARS-Cov-2 infected patients

作者:

Highlights:

• Machine learning was used to develop models to predict COVID-19 positive patient.

• Features were extracted from patient data using string matching algorithms.

• Constructed a novel dataset from unstructured hospitalized patient information.

• Used descriptive statistical analysis for frequency calculation of patient symptoms.

• Identified significant symptoms of COVID-19 patients using five different ML models.
