3P: Personalized pregnancy prediction in IVF treatment process

Abstract

We present an intelligent learning system for improving pregnancy success rate of IVF treatment. Our proposed model uses an SVM based classification system for training a model from past data and making predictions on implantation outcome of new embryos. This study employs an embryo-centered approach. Each embryo is represented with a data feature vector including 17 features related to patient characteristics, clinical diagnosis, treatment method and embryo morphological parameters. Our experimental results demonstrate a prediction accuracy of 82.7%. We have obtained the IVF dataset from Bahceci Women Health, Care Centre, in Istanbul, Turkey. © ICST Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering 2009.
