Forecasting of rehabilitation treatment in sufferers from lateral displacement of patella using artificial intelligence

AbstractObjectivesIn this research, the application of artificial intelligence methods for data analysis named hybrid artificial neural network (ANN) with teaching learning based optimization (TLBO) algorithm to predict of the rehabilitation treatment  for females with lateral displacement of the patella (LDP) is demonstrated.MethodsThe prediction abilities offered using ANN-TLBO model was presented using available data from 48 female patients referred to physical medicine and rehabilitation clinics of Isfahan Ayatollah Kashani medical center and Al Zahra hospital, Iran. In this modeling, clinical characteristics [weight, height, body mass index (BMI), the degree of LDP, affected side and severity of pain] and demographic characteristic (age) were utilized as the input parameters, while the rehabilitation treatment was the output parameter.Results and discussionThe results indicate a high level of efficient of ANN-TLBO model used with an accuracy level of more than 86%. Therefore, this model can be used successfully for the prediction of rehabilitation treatment for females with LDP.
