Human-Centric Smart Computing

Abstract

The progress of science and technology in recent times has gifted numerous solutions that have revolutionized our lifestyle. The advent of Internet of Things (IoT) and associated frameworks have ushered in a new era of smart, automated applications that require minimum human intervention to provide effective solutions. However, it is quintessential that some critical, real-time, human health related problems be addressed in a human-centric approach with the aid of the current technological developments. The assessment and early detection of maternal risk is a persisting issue which often results in loss of life and/or trauma in pregnant women. The proposed work addresses this problem with the development of a smart system that is capable of identifying the intensity of maternal risk based on physiological health parameters of the patients. It is observed that the Decision Tree classification algorithm is more effective in developing such a critically important system, than other algorithms like Logistic Regression and Multi-Layer Perceptron. Our system thus provides an efficient solution that can mitigate mis-identification of maternal risk intensity to a large extent whilst ensuring an accuracy of 83.5%.
