The dataset consists of 74 columns. The first few rows of the dataset are as follows:
Unnamed: 0
: It seems like an index column that is probably a remnant from saving the dataframe to a CSV file. It starts from 1.0.X
: It also looks like an index column. It starts from 0.0.index
: Yet another index column. It starts from 0.0.흉수날짜
: A date column. It probably represents the date of a certain medical procedure. The dates are in YYYY-MM-DD format.연구번호
: A numerical identifier, possibly a research or patient ID.신장측정값
: A numerical value possibly representing some type of measurement. The actual meaning would depend on the context, but it could be something like height in centimeters.신체계측체중값
: Another numerical measurement, possibly the body weight of the patient.내원나이
: A numerical value likely representing the age of the patient.성별코드
: A categorical variable indicating gender, with 'M' indicating male and 'F' female.ADA_pleural.fluid
: A numerical measurement, possibly related to pleural fluid analysis.PF_ratio
,sum_pleural
,exudate
,complicated_pleural_effusion
,Tuberculosis
,new_label
,true_tb
,lym_neu_ratio
,predicted_tb
,group
: These are some of the other columns that seem to contain information related to patient diagnoses and medical conditions. Their specific meanings would depend on the context of the study.
Please note that some columns' names are in Korean, and some columns seem to contain missing values (NaN
).
Let's perform more detailed exploratory data analysis. I will check the number of missing values, the number of unique values, and the basic statistics (for numerical columns).
From your request, it seems like you're interested in building a model to predict the "new_label" using the features from "신장측정값" to "Lymphocyte_Pleural.fluid".
The first step will be to subset the data and then preprocess it. Preprocessing will include handling missing values and converting categorical variables into numerical format if necessary.
Then, we'll have to examine the distribution of "new_label" to decide whether this is a binary classification problem, multiclass classification problem, or regression problem.
Once we know the nature of the problem, we can select an appropriate machine learning model. For binary and multiclass classification problems, models like logistic regression, random forest, gradient boosting, and neural networks could be useful. For regression problems, we could consider linear regression, random forest regression, gradient boosting regression, or neural network regression.
Let's start by subsetting the data and preprocessing it.
In this analysis, we used a simple imputation method to deal with missing values. This is a basic strategy where missing values are filled in based on other data. We used different strategies for numerical and categorical variables:
Numerical variables: Missing values were filled with the median value of the corresponding column. The median is a robust measure of central tendency, and it is not affected by outliers. This makes it a good choice for imputation, especially if the data is not normally distributed.
Categorical variables: Missing values were filled with the most frequent category (mode) in the corresponding column. This is a reasonable choice when there is no obvious way to order the categories, which is often the case with categorical data.
This imputation was done as part of a preprocessing pipeline using the SimpleImputer
class from the sklearn.impute
module. The pipeline ensured that the same imputation rules were applied to both the training and test data.
Please note that while simple imputation is easy to understand and implement, it has some limitations. It doesn't account for the correlations between features, and it can introduce bias if the missingness is not completely at random. More advanced imputation methods, such as k-nearest neighbors imputation, multivariate imputation by chained equations (MICE), or model-based imputation, could potentially provide better results, but they are also more computationally intensive and may be more difficult to apply correctly.
