Predicting microbe organisms using data of living micro forms of life and hybrid microbes classifier

Abstract

Microbe organisms make up approximately 60% of the earth’s living matter and the human body is home to millions of microbe organisms. Microbes are microbial threats to health and may lead to several diseases in humans like toxoplasmosis and malaria. The microbiological toxoplasmosis disease in humans is widespread, with a seroprevalence of 3.6-84% in sub-Saharan Africa. This necessitates an automated approach for microbe organisms detection. The primary objective of this study is to predict microbe organisms in the human body. A novel hybrid microbes classifier (HMC) is proposed in this study which is based on a decision tree classifier and extra tree classifier using voting criteria. Experiments involve different machine learning and deep learning models for detecting ten different living microforms of life. Results suggest that the proposed HMC approach achieves a 98% accuracy score, 98% geometric mean score, 97% precision score, and 97% Cohen Kappa score. The proposed model outperforms employed models, as well as, existing state-of-the-art models. Moreover, the k-fold cross-validation corroborates the results as well. The research helps microbiologists identify the type of microbe organisms with high accuracy and prevents many diseases through early detection.
