Hybrid XGBoost-LSTM Model for Early Parkinson’s Disease Identification Using Voice Data
摘要
Parkinson’s disease (PD) affects global millions of people and early diagnosis is critical for effective treatment and improved quality of life. We propose a hybrid model that integrates XGBoost for feature selection and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for time series analysis to identify PD using voice data. This system achieves high diagnostic accuracy validated through performance metrics and ROC-AUC. The hybrid approach outperforms standalone models and offers a scalable non-invasive and reliable diagnostic tool for clinical and telemedicine environments. By analyzing the voice data, we aim to provide a better understanding of the relationship between voice characteristics and Parkinson’s Disease, contributing to the development of reliable, non-invasive diagnostic tools. The integration of LSTM’s ability to handle sequential data with XGBoost’s efficient classification capabilities could offer a significant improvement in early detection methods, bringing us closer to accessible and accurate diagnostic solutions.
