This work presents the evaluation of Raman spectroscopy using random forest (RF) for the analysis of dengue fever in the infected human sera. A total of 100 dengue suspected blood samples, collected from Holy Family Hospital, Rawalpindi, Pakistan, have been used in this study. Out of these samples, 45 were dengue-positive based on immunoglobulin M (IgM) capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) tests. For highlighting the spectral differences between normal and infected samples, an effective machine learning system is developed that automatically learns the pattern of the shift in spectrum for the dengue compared to normal cases and thus is able to predict the unknown class based on the known example. In this connection, dimensionality reduction has been performed with the principal component analysis (PCA), while RF is used for automatic classification of dengue samples. For the determination of diagnostic capabilities of Raman spectroscopy based on RF, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy have been calculated in comparison to normally performed IgM capture ELISA. According to the experiment, accuracy of 91%, sensitivity of 91%, and specificity of 91% were achieved for the proposed RF-based model.
