Özet

Since its emergence in 2019, the coronavirus epidemic, which has affected the whole world, especially Wuhan, China, continues to spread without being prevented. Early diagnosis plays a major role in preventing and reducing the coronavirus epidemic day by day. Covid-19 disease diagnosis is based on many diagnostic methods such as computed tomography, ultrasound imaging, laboratory tests. Artificial intelligence appears as a helpful tool for these diagnostic methods. Artificial intelligence saves time, cost and labor in diagnosis. Today, PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) test is actively used in the diagnosis of Covid-19In this study, biochemistry parameters were used in the diagnosis of Covid-19 disease and an application was developed to determine the priorities of biochemistry parameters in diagnosis. In the study, feature selection process was performed with the relieff method among all the biochemistry parameters and 6 priority parameters were determined. The classification process was performed with the priority parameters and 89.3% accuracy, 93.4% specificity, 85% sensitivity, 92.7% sensitivity and 88.7% F1 score values were obtained with support vector machines. As a result of the study, it has been observed that the classification made with the features selected with the Relieff algorithm is more successful than the classification made using all biochemistry parameter parameters. It is thought that the work carried out will help early diagnosis in the Covid-19 outbreak, as well as reduce the workload of healthcare workers and save costs with the help of artificial intelligence.
