• Abstract: A great deal of effort has been devoted to discovering a particular genetic disorder, but its classification across a broad spectrum of disorder classes and types remains elusive. Early diagnosis of genetic disorders enables timely interventions and improves outcomes. This study implements machine learning models using basic clinical indicators measurable at birth or infancy to enable diagnosis in preliminary life stages. Supervised learning algorithms were implemented on a dataset of 22083 instances with 42 features like family history, newborn metrics, and basic lab tests. Extensive hyperparameter tuning, feature engineering, and selection were undertaken. Two multi-class classifiers were developed: one for predicting disorder classes (mitochondrial, multifactorial, and single-gene) and one for subtypes (9 disorders). Performance was evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, and the F1-score. The CatBoost classifier achieved the highest accuracy of 77% for predicting genetic disorder classes. For subtypes, SVM attained a maximum accuracy of 80%. The study demonstrates the feasibility of using basic clinical data in machine learning models for early categorization and diagnosis across various genetic disorders. Applying ML with basic clinical indicators can enable timely interventions once validated on larger datasets. It is necessary to conduct further studies to improve model performance on this dataset.

  Large language models (LLMs) have performed well in medical exams, but their effectiveness in diagnosing rare genetic diseases has not been assessed. We used multi-agent and Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) classification to categorized patients based on phenotypes and solvability levels. At baseline, GPT-4 outperformed other LLMs, achieving near 30% accuracy in ranking causal genes correctly.

We found that outliers/skew in predictor or target variables did not pose a challenge to regression models. We also found that class-imbalanced target variables and skewed predictors had little to no impact on classification performance.
