Abstract:
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a chronic neurological disorder that advances gradually, with signs often resembling those of other conditions. Timely detection and diagnosis of PD are crucial for giving the appropriate treatment, assisting patients in maintaining their health and improving their quality of life. These disease signs have been described as slowness in activities, muscle rigidity, tremors, and balancing with other psychiatric signs. Handwritten heath records are the main devices that support PD recognition and evaluation. Many Machine Learning (ML) methodologies have been discovered for the early recognition of PD. However, many handcrafted feature extractor techniques mainly suffer from lower-performance accuracy problems. Therefore, Deep Learning (DL) models are widely used to analyse medical data. In this view, this study presents a Hybrid Meta-heuristics with DL Assisted PD Detection and Classification (HMDL-PDDC) technique. The HMDL-PDDC technique follows the hybrid metaheuristics-based Feature Selection (FS) design with an optimum DL method for recognizing and identifying PD. In the HMDL-PDDC technique, feature subsets are selected using an Improved Salp Swarm Algorithm (ISSA). Besides, the Kernel-based Deep Elman Neural Networks (KDENNs) technique is exploited to detect and identify PD. Moreover, the hyperparameter selection of the KDENN model is performed by an Object‐Oriented Programming Optimization Algorithm (OOPOA) technique. The experimentation outcomes of the HMDL-PDDC model are examined under four datasets using a set of measures. The experimental assessment of the HMDL-PDDC technique illustrated superior accuracy values of 93.98%, 94.97%, 98.71% and 97.10% over existing models.
