Objective:

To develop and validate a model for early detection of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) using machine learning techniques that address data scarcity, class imbalance, and complex interrelationships among clinical indicators.

Key Findings:
  • The model using the dual-dimensional enhancement framework, particularly the random forest model enhanced by Tabular Variational Autoencoder–based feature augmentation (TFRFM), achieved a recall of 0.7559.
  • The model attained an accuracy of 0.8444 and an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of 0.8873.
Interpretation:

Limitations:
  • The study is limited to a specific population from a single hospital, which may affect the generalizability of the findings.
  • The reliance on historical data may introduce biases related to changes in clinical practices or population characteristics over time.
Conclusion:

The proposed model enhances early detection of GDM.
