Abstract

INTRODUCTION: IVF is a widely-used assisted reproductive technology with a consistent success rate of around 30%, and improving this rate is crucial due to emotional, financial, and health-related implications for infertile couples. This study aimed to develop a model for predicting IVF outcome by comparing five machine-learning techniques.
