Abstract
Miscarriage or spontaneous abortion is the natural death of the fetus before 20 weeks of pregnancy. Stillbirth is the term used to refer to the fetus's demise after this period. Miscarriage can harm both the parents. One cannot reverse the outcome of pregnancy. The only way to deal with miscarriage is to take certain precautions and prevent it. With this objective, this study uses various machine learning techniques such as Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Random Forest to predict a pregnancy's outcome based on specific features. This paper focuses on each model's contribution and compares the algorithms’ efficiency based on some standard evaluation measures.
