Abstract

Hand, foot, and mouth disease(HFMD) is an infectious disease of the intestines that damages people’s health, severe cases could lead to cardiorespiratory failure or death.

Therefore, severe cases’ identification of HFMD is important. A real-time, automatic and efficient prediction system based on multi-source data (structured and unstructured data), and gradient boosting decision tree(GBDT) is proposed in this paper for severe HFMD identification. A missing data imputation method based on GBDT model is proposed.

Experimental result shows that our model can identify severe HFMD with a reasonable area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.94, and which is better than that of PCIS by 17%.
