Abstract

This paper delves into the dynamic intersection of machine learning (ML) and healthcare, envisioning a paradigm shift in diagnostic accuracy, personalized treatment, and streamlined administration. It meticulously explores various ML algorithms, spanning deep learning, decision trees, and clustering techniques, pivotal in domains like early cancer detection, diabetes detection, heart disease detection, autism spectrum disorder detection, and Parkinson’s disease detection. Rigorous model evaluation, employing accuracy, precision, F1-score, specificity, and mean squared error metrics, ensures algorithm dependability. However, data privacy challenges, amplified by intricate regulations, persist. Ethical considerations add complicated dimensions, including algorithmic bias and cultivating patient trust. Addressing these necessitates robust education for healthcare professionals and alignment with legal frameworks. Despite challenges, the paper advocates for a conscientious integration of ML, emphasizing its transformative potential in healthcare and urging judicious technology amalgamation to propel advancements in patient care and clinical outcomes.
