#Disclaimer: Built this project after taking inspiration from a lot of projects that I saw on youtube based on COVID19. I'm glad I completed this project. Even though I did not know all the tech used, I learned all of it in the process of making this project.😊
#📝Aim of the Project: Build an application to combine my ML + web development skills. Create a Web application to predict the patient's probability of the contract of COVID19 based on the given symptoms.
#👩🏻💻Technologies and Languages Used: Python libraries - pandas, NumPy, Sklearn, pickle; Jupyter Notebook, Flask, HTML,Bootstrap, and Visual Studio Code.
#📄Dataset: Generated a dataset that contains 6 columns, where 5 columns are namely age(1-100), Body temperature in Fahrenheit(98-104), Body pain(0/1), Cough(1/0), Difficulty in breathing(-1/0/1) and the 6th column tells if the person has the disease or not(0/1).
#📊Training the dataset: I trained it using logistic regression and predicted the probability. Logistic regression is a statistical model that in its basic form uses a logistic function to model a binary dependent variable, although many more complex extensions exist. In regression analysis, logistic regression (or logit regression) is estimating the parameters of a logistic model (a form of binary regression).
You can see how I used the logistic regression on the dataset here.
#📈Saving the model: Used the python pickle library to save the model. The pickle module implements a fundamental, but powerful algorithm for serializing and de-serializing a Python object structure. “Pickling” is the process whereby a Python object hierarchy is converted into a byte stream, and “unpickling” is the inverse operation, whereby a byte stream is converted back into an object hierarchy. Pickling (and unpickling) is alternatively known as “serialization” or “flattening”, however, to avoid confusion, the terms used here are “pickling” and “unpickling”.
#🌸Creating the UI: Used simple HTML and Bootstrap to create the UI. Used basic elements like navbar, forms, and buttons. You can check the screenshots of the App below.
#👾Putting it all together: Now the only thing left is to combine everything using the Flask web framework. Flask is a micro web framework written in Python. It is classified as a microframework because it does not require particular tools or libraries.
You can understand how I did it here.
