High-performance detection of alcoholism by unfolding the amalgamated EEG spectra using the Random Forests method

We show that by unfolding the outdated EEG standard bandwidths in a fine-grade equidistant 99-point spectrum we can precisely detect alcoholism. Using this novel pre-processing step prior to entering a random forests classifier, our method substantially outperforms all previous results with a balanced accuracy of 97.4 percent. Our machine learning work contributes to healthcare and information systems. Due to its drastic and protracted...
