ABSTRACT
Objective To establish a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) model for the classification and diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) complicated with renal involvement,and to provide a new method for the timely detection and diagnosis of the disease.Methods Simulated annealing(SA) algorithm was used to optimize the penalty coefficient C and kernel function parameter g of the support vector machines(SVM) algorithm before an SA-SVM classifier model was established and was applied to the intelligent assistant diagnosis of SLE.Results Unlike the single SVM classifier,this method never fell into local optimum,and improved the classification accuracy of a classifier.The classification accuracy for SLE with renal involvement was as high as 98.72％.Conclusion The experimental results show that this classification model is well applicable to the intelligent diagnosis of SLE with renal involvement.
