Heuristic models and methods for application of the kohonen neural network in the intellectual system of medical-sociological monitoring

Abstract

For increasing the speed of making classification decisions, the possibilities of supervised deep neural networks training are used in systems of medical and sociological monitoring. But the data obtained during the monitoring process are semi - structured and - labelled. This greatly reduces speed and increases supervised machine - training error. The paper proposes heuristic models and methods of using the Kohonen network to increase the training rate on the s emi - supervised mode without losing the accuracy level of data classification in intelligent systems of medical and sociological monitoring. More specifically, propo sed tools include improved models for the presentation of semi - structured and - labelled medi cal and sociological monitoring data in the spaces of properties and features due to formalization of procedure of the detailed data aggregation, as well as the semi - supervised training of the Kohonen network using the method of matching existing pre - label led data with the obtained labels of features clusters. In addition, the method of adjusting weight coefficients in the process of training the Kohonen neural network thro ugh the use of a modified genetic algorithm to classify medical and sociological moni toring data was further developed. The proposed modification of the genetic algorithm consists in using the method of matching labels of classes and clusters in assessment t he adaptability of chromosomes in the population generated for each example from tr aining sample of medical and sociological monitoring data. It is proposed for evaluating the adaptability of chromosomes to calculate the completeness of the classific ation as the ratio of the number of found representatives of the positive class to all re presentatives of the positive class. When performing the selection procedure on the basis of the obtained adaptability score, the two most adapted (“winner” and “vice - winner”) chromosomes are selected and crossed, whereas in contrast, the two least adapted (“loser” and “vice - loser”) chromosomes are deleted. The crossing is implemented as the exchange of genes between the winner and vice - winner chromosomes, taking into account a randomly selected crossing - over point. Upon mutation, a random number distribute d according to a uniform law is added to each chromosome gene, which is an auxiliary method for creating a new chromosome to prevent degeneration of the population . The proposed heuristic models and methods are the basis for the implementation of a separat e module as part of the intellectual system of medical and sociological monitoring. Testing the modified intellectual system using well - known test examples from the machine training database and real medical and sociological data showed an increase in the training speed of the Kohonen network with a given level of classification accuracy. Thus, the introduction of the proposed tools allows increasing the efficiency of classification decisions without losing their level of accuracy in intelligent systems of medical and sociological monitoring
