Abstract

The regular blood test is the most common and consistent initial test for COVID-19 patients, and the results are quite obtainable within two hours. Due to the high volume of patients admitted to hospitals and the scarcity of medical resources, a regular blood test may be the only way to check for COVID-19 when patients initially visit hospitals. It might be difficult to quickly identify people who are most vulnerable to disease due to improper distribution of RT-PCR-based test equipment. Some tools and resources are required for frequently monitoring patients for optimal treatment. So, keeping up with it regularly is challenging. As a result, a routine blood test allows patients to be monitored daily. In our proposed work, we have attempted to identify the most impacted characteristics that have the strongest effect on the target. So far, we have focused on determining frequently occurring indicators. Then we have used random forest, k-nearest neighbor, decision tree, support vector machine, and naive bayes machine learning approaches and established a stacking technique with those four base learners and one meta learner to effectively justify the outcome. There are four forms of splitting, and each has the best output with an accuracy of more than equal to 84.75%. Based on this, we’ve discovered that Age and LYMPH are commonly active indicators.
