Support Vector Machines (SVMs) might also be interesting to look into for disease classification. They've proven results in this field as well.

Hey, I haven't thought about using GANs for my project. Thanks for the great suggestion! I'll certainly give it a try.

I'm not surprised. AI has huge potential in the medical field. I recently started working on a project utilizing deep learning algorithms for medical image analysis and I'm impressed with the results.

Have you considered using Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to augment the training dataset? It can help increase the robustness of models sometimes.

Don't forget 'Neural Smithing: Supervised Learning in Feedforward Artificial Neural Networks' by R. Hecht-Nielsen. It's a classic in the field.
