Abstract


The goal of this study is to develop a simple intelligent urolithiasis diagnosis system. The accuracy of the system was determined by comparing the recognition rates of the Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs)-, k-nearest Neighbor (kNN)-, and Support Vector Machines (SVM) algorithms. The results showed that the ANN model was superior to SVM and KNN models in prediction. We aimed through this work to classify the subjects in three classes according to the chemical concentrations of variables (Ca, Ox, pCaOx, Ca/ Ox) using and according to their clinical status. The ANN model, used to determine the first class that contains the subjects presenting their urine a calcium oxalate monohydrate (CaC2O4,H2O : whewellite (Wh)) crystal type. This ANN model reached a correct prediction rate of 85.3%. Using SVM- and KNN model the correct prediction rate reached 82.6% and 65.55% respectively. The second class contains the subjects presenting a calcium oxalate dihydrate (CaC2O4,2H2O wedellite (Wd)) crystal type. The ANN-, SVM- and KNN model reached a 93.4%-, 94.2%- and 77.25% correct prediction rate, respectively. In third class that corresponds to the subjects who have negative crystalluria (NC), ANN-, SVM- and KNN model reached a 91.7%-, 87.8%- and 69.77% correct prediction rate, respectively. Compared to SVM- and KNN models, the developed system using ANN model has allowed us to discriminate the subjects. This system is important in clinical laboratories since it could be a helpful tool for provide information about the development, formation of urinary stones crystals and the determination of their crystal type.
