| Summary: | This study aims to explore the efficacy of Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) in enhancing predictive modeling for healthcare applications. Advancements in artificial intelligence have significantly improved predictive modeling capabilities, with BNNs offering a probabilistic framework that addresses the inherent uncertainty and variability in healthcare data. This study demonstrates the real-world applicability of BNNs through three key case studies: personalized diabetes treatment, early Alzheimer’s disease detection, and predictive modeling for HbA1c levels. By leveraging the Bayesian approach, these models provide not only enhanced predictive accuracy but also uncertainty quantification, a critical factor in clinical decision making. While the findings are promising, future research should focus on optimizing scalability and integration for real-world applications. This work lays a foundation for future studies, including the development of rating scales based on BNN predictions to improve clinical outcomes. |
