Warfarin predictor design
Warfarin predictor was a result of my cosc366 research project. It is a web based application that uses machine learning algorithms to predict a right dose for hart-valve transplant patients. The importance of determining a correct dose comes from a fact that there is a very real danger of blood clots occurring on the heart-valve of a patient . In order to prevent blood clotting Warfarin is taken by patients as a blood thinner. By taking a right dose a patient has a minimal chance of clotting, while still ensuring that patient has enough clotting ability so that he or she does not bleed to death.
