Popis: Abstract Ischemic stroke is a leading global cause of death and disability and is expected to rise in the future. The present diagnostic techniques, like CT and MRI, have some limitations in distinguishing acute from chronic ischemia and in early ischemia detection. This study investigates the function of ensemble models based on the dynamic radiomics features (DRF) from the dynamic susceptibility contrast perfusion-weighted imaging (DSC-PWI) ischemic stroke diagnosis, neurological impairment assessment, and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) outcome prediction). DRF is extracted from the 3D images, features are selected, and dimensionality is reduced. After that, ensemble models are applied. Two model structures were developed: a voting classifier with 6 bagging classifiers and a stacking classifier based on 4 bagging classifiers. The ensemble models were evaluated on three core tasks. The Stacking_ens_LR model performed best for ischemic stroke detection, the LR Bagging model for NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS) prediction, and the NB Bagging model for outcome prediction. These outcomes illustrate the strength of ensemble models. The work showcases the role of ensemble models and DRF in the stroke management process.
