A New Approach of Fatigue Classification Based on Data of Tongue and Pulse With Machine Learning.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Fatigue is a common and subjective symptom, which is associated with many diseases and suboptimal health status. A reliable and evidence-based approach is lacking to distinguish disease fatigue and non-disease fatigue. This study aimed to establish a method for early differential diagnosis of fatigue, which can be used to distinguish disease fatigue from non-disease fatigue, and to investigate the feasibility of characterizing fatigue states in a view of tongue and pulse data analysis.

Methods

Tongue and Face Diagnosis Analysis-1 (TFDA-1) instrument and Pulse Diagnosis Analysis-1 (PDA-1) instrument were used to collect tongue and pulse data. Four machine learning models were used to perform classification experiments of disease fatigue vs. non-disease fatigue.
