Rapid Diagnosis of Type II Diabetes Using Fourier Transform Mid-Infrared Attenuated Total Reflection Spectroscopy Combined with Support Vector Machine

摘要

Type II diabetes was diagnosed by Fourier transform mid-infrared (FTMIR) attenuated total reflection (ATR) spectroscopy in combination with support vector machine (SVM). Spectra of serum samples from 65 patients with clinical confirmed type II diabetes mellitus and 55 healthy volunteers were acquired using ATR-FTMIR and were first pretreated by three pretreatments (Savitzky-Golay smoothing, multiple scattering correction, and wavelet transforms algorithms) to reduce the interfering information before establishing the SVM models. The parameters of SVM (penalty factor C and kernel function parameter gamma) were optimized to improve the generalization abilities of the models. A grid search method (GS), genetic algorithm (GA), and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm, were used to find out the optimal parameter values. The results showed that the maximum accuracies were 95.74, 97.87, and 89.36% for the optimized GS, GA, and PSO algorithms. The maximum sensitivities were 96, 100, and 92, and the maximum specificity were 95.45, 95.45, and 86.36%, respectively. The results indicated that the accuracy of type II diabetes was improved using the GS, GA, and PSO algorithms for optimizing the SVM parameters. The GA was found to be slightly better than the GS and PSO. The results of the experiment confirmed that the combination of the ATR-FTMIR spectroscopy and SVM was able to rapidly and accurately diagnose type II diabetes without reagents.
