Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Differentiating between Meniere's disease (MD) and vestibular migraine (VM) is challenging due to overlapping symptoms and limited diagnostic tools. Traditional statistical methods often rely on physician judgment and struggle with complex, high-dimensional data. This study applies the random forest (RF) machine learning algorithm to enhance the clinical differentiation between MD and VM.
