Mortality prediction of COVID-19 patients using soft voting classifier

ABSTRACT: COVID-19 is a novel coronavirus that spread around the globe with the initial reports coming from Wuhan, China, turned into a pandemic and caused enormous casualties. Various countries have faced multiple COVID spikes which put the medical infrastructure of these countries under immense pressure with third-world countries being hit the hardest. It can be thus concluded that determining the likeliness of death of a patient helps in avoiding fatalities which inspired the authors to research the topic. There are various ways to approach the problem such as past medical records, chest X-rays, CT scans, and blood biomarkers. Since blood biomarkers are most easily available in emergency scenarios, blood biomarkers were used as the features for the model. The data was first imputed and the traini
