- 1 Due to an effective combination of features in the reservoir and their subsequent classification, LogNNet has promising opportunities for application in clinical decision support systems.
- 2 Almost any object or phenomenon can be associated with several features, which can be used to predict its behavior or relation to any class.
- 3 The constant parameters of the model are set, corresponding to the same values as they do during training.
- 4 After the test data has been verified and the classification metrics meet the criteria for implementing the model in clinical practice, the model can be used to process patient data.
Introduction
IoT is the backbone technology in various areas, including in smart healthcare , smart homes , smart urbanization . The concept of smart healthcare is actively developing in different countries, and the global market for IoT medical devices is growing every year .
The constantly emerging new threats to public health, such as the new coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic , crate continuous stimulus for the development of new technologies.
As intelligent data processing requires the use of neural networks and intelligent algorithms, the concept of edge computing is actively developing .
The models are designed to help medical personnel in patient triage, especially in conditions with limited health resources, and to promote the development of mobile services for self-diagnosis at home.
The key point is the presence of artificial intelligence on devices with limited resources.
Methodology
The Internet of Things (IoT) consists of intelligent devices that have limited resources and that are capable of collecting, recognizing, and processing data as well as exchanging processed data between network participants . Therefore, the development of new neural architectures and algorithms capable of working on constrained devices is an important task.
Study Design
Machine learning helps to create data processing rules for the purposes of clustering, classification, and regression, where unsupervised, supervised, and reinforced learning approaches are used .
Popular machine learning algorithms for analyzing medical data are multilayer perceptron (feedforward neural networks with multiple layers, linear classifier) , support vector machines , K-nearest neighbors , the random forest method , logistic regression , and decision trees .

- Clinical decision support systems often use boosting methods, for example, AdaBoost and the XGBoost classifier , when the algorithms are organized into assemblies to increase predictive.
- The disadvantage of this approach for edge computing is the lack of a clear understanding by users of how these algorithms are arranged, how to install.
- Ways to reduce the memory consumption of neural networks in edge computing include pruning connections after learning , online learning with sparse networks , and quantization-aware.
Due to an effective combination of features in the reservoir and their subsequent classification, LogNNet has promising opportunities for application in clinical decision support systems.
