Article Citation - Scopus: 8Building a Challenging Medical Dataset for Comparative Evaluation of Classifier Capabilities(Elsevier Ltd, 2024-08) Bozkurt, Berat; Coskun, Kerem; Bakal, GokhanSince the 2000s, digitalization has been a crucial transformation in our lives. Nevertheless, digitalization brings a bulk of unstructured textual data to be processed, including articles, clinical records, web pages, and shared social media posts. As a critical analysis, the classification task classifies the given textual entities into correct categories. Categorizing documents from different domains is straightforward since the instances are unlikely to contain similar contexts. However, document classification in a single domain is more complicated due to sharing the same context. Thus, we aim to classify medical articles about four common cancer types (Leukemia, Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, Bladder Cancer, and Thyroid Cancer) by constructing machine learning and deep learning models. We used 383,914 medical articles about four common cancer types collected by the PubMed API. To build classification models, we split the dataset into 70% as training, 20% as testing, and 10% as validation. We built widely used machine-learning (Logistic Regression, XGBoost, CatBoost, and Random Forest Classifiers) and modern deep-learning (convolutional neural networks - CNN, long short-term memory - LSTM, and gated recurrent unit - GRU) models. We computed the average classification performances (precision, recall, F-score) to evaluate the models over ten distinct dataset splits. The best-performing deep learning model(s) yielded a superior F1 score of 98%. However, traditional machine learning models also achieved reasonably high F1 scores, 95% for the worst-performing case. Ultimately, we constructed multiple models to classify articles, which compose a hard-to-classify dataset in the medical domain. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 4A Transfer Learning Application on the Reliability of Psychological Drugs' Comments(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023-07-25) Sen, Tarik Uveys; Bakal, GokhanAs digitalization and the Internet stay emerging concepts by gaining popularity, the accuracy of personal reviews/opinions will be a critical issue. This circumstance also particularly applies to patients taking psychological drugs, where accurate information is crucial for other patients and medical professionals. In this study, we analyze drug reviews from drugs.com to determine the effectiveness of reviews for psychological drugs. Our dataset includes over 200,000 drug reviews, which we labeled as positive, negative, or neutral according to their rating scores. We apply machine learning (ML) models, including Logistic Regression, Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) algorithms, to predict the sentiment class of each review. Our results demonstrate an F1-Weighted score of 85.3% for the LSTM model. However, by applying the transfer learning technique, we further improved the F1 score (nearly 3% increase) obtained by the LSTM model. Our findings proved that there is no contextual difference between the comments made by the patients suffering from psychological or other diseases. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
