Can AI Predict Diabetes?
Jun 05, 2024An Interactive LLM-Supported Prediction
In our prior emails, we discussed Diabetic Retinopathy and its impact on vision. Today, we delve into an even broader topic: the potential of AI in predicting diabetes itself.
The Problem of Diabetes Prediction
Diabetes is a global health concern, with prediabetes affecting hundreds of millions worldwide. Early detection is crucial for effective prevention and treatment, yet it remains a challenging task. The development of predictive models for diabetes is complex due to the involvement of multiple risk factors and the need for early intervention. This is where AI, specifically machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), steps in, offering a potential solution by analyzing large and complex biomedical datasets.
The application of AI in this field is a relatively new approach, and there are some limitations to the current body of research. Most existing studies focus on unimodal AI models, utilizing a single type of data such as electronic health records (EHR). While these models have shown promise, there is a need to explore more comprehensive approaches that integrate multiple data modalities. Furthermore, internal and external validation of these models is essential, but external validation has been lacking in many studies, raising questions about their generalizability.
Additionally, the majority of studies focus on discrimination measures, such as the area under the curve (AUC), to evaluate the performance of their models. However, it is important to also consider calibration, which provides insights into the reliability of the predicted probabilities. Only a handful of studies have addressed this aspect, highlighting a potential gap in the current research.
Real-World Applications
AI has already made significant strides in diabetes prediction. One notable example is the use of voice analysis to detect undiagnosed diabetes or prediabetes. This non-invasive approach has the potential to reach a wide population and aid in early intervention.
Another application of AI is in the analysis of electronic health records. By leveraging ML algorithms, researchers can identify high-risk individuals and uncover risk factors associated with the development of diabetes. This information can then be used to guide personalized interventions and prevent the onset of the disease.
Our Solution: Interactive LLM-Supported Prediction
To address the challenges in diabetes prediction, we propose a comprehensive approach that utilizes health and biological inputs, combined with an interactive LLM session. This solution is comprised of three key components:
-
Technical Details: We develop multiple classifiers through scikit-learn lazy-classifier, a powerful and flexible machine learning framework. By employing a lazy-classifier approach, we can efficiently handle large and complex datasets. To enhance the predictive power of our model, we integrate an LLM assistant that provides additional insights and analysis.
-
Health & Biological Inputs: Our model utilizes a range of health and biological data, including EHRs, multi-omics data, and medical imaging. By incorporating multiple data modalities, we capture a more comprehensive view of an individual's health status, improving the accuracy of our predictions.
-
Interactive LLM Session: To further enhance the user experience and the predictive power of our model, we introduce an interactive LLM session. This session allows users to engage in a natural language conversation, providing additional context and information that may not be captured in structured data formats.
This solution offers a user-friendly and accurate diabetes prediction tool, supported by the power of AI and interactive LLMs.
