Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Asthma is the most frequent chronic airway illness in preschool children and is difficult to diagnose due to the disease's heterogeneity. This study aimed to investigate different machine learning models and suggested the most effective one to classify two forms of asthma in preschool children (predominantly allergic asthma and non-allergic asthma) using a minimum number of features.
