| Abstract | Following the application of a large number of neural network schemes that have been applied to a large data base of pregnant women, aiming at generating a predictor for the risk of preeclampsia occurrence at an early stage, we investigated the importance of the parameters of smoking and alcohol intake on the classification yield. A number of feedforward neural structures, both standard multilayer and multi-slab, were tried for the prediction. The database was composed of 6838 cases of pregnant women in UK, provided by the Harris Birthright Research Centre for Fetal Medicine in London. For each subject, 24 parameters were measured or recorded. Out of these, 15 parameters were considered as the most influential at characterizing the risk of preeclampsia occurrence, including the characteristics on whether the pregnant woman was an active smoker or not, and on whether she was consuming alcohol. The same data were applied to the same neural architecture, after excluding the information on smoking and alcohol, in order to study the importance of these two parameters on the correct classification yield. It has been found that both information parameters, were needed in order to achieve a correct classification as high as 83.6% of preeclampsia cases in the whole dataset, and of 93.8% in the test set. The preeclampsia cases prediction, for the totally unknown verification test, was 100%. When information on smoking and alcohol intake were not used, the results deteriorated significantly. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
