Classification and Pathological Diagnosis of Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonia

Abstract

Idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) is a group of progressive lower respiratory tract diseases of unknown origin characterized by diffuse alveolitis and alveolar structural disorders leading to pulmonary fibrillation and hypertension, pulmonary heart disease, and right heart failure due to pulmonary fibrosis, and more than half of them die from respiratory failure. To address these problems of overly complex prediction methods and large data sets involved in the prediction process of interstitial pneumonia, this paper proposes a prediction model for interstitial pneumonia which is based on the Gaussian Parsimonious Bayes algorithm. Three usual tests of pneumonia, specifically from various patients, were collected as the sample set. These samples are divided into training and testing sets. Additionally, a cross-validation strategy was used to avoid the overfitting problem. The results showed that the prediction model based on the Gaussian Parsimonious Bayes algorithm predicted 92% accuracy on the test set, and the Parsimonious Bayes method could directly predict the final detection of interstitial pneumonia based on the usual pneumonia test pneumonia. In addition, it was found that the closer the data distribution of the sample set was to a normal distribution, the higher the prediction accuracy was, and then, after excluding pneumonia from the test below 60 points, the prediction accuracy reached 96%.
