News & Updates
HepB LiveTest is a diagnostic tool for hepatitis B virus
(HBV) powered by machine learning, and designed
as a proof of concept for clinical prediction of a
patient HBV infection status in real-
time.
This user-friendly web-based tool provides a graphical
user interface (GUI) to access our predictive
diagnostic model of HBV infection.
HepB LiveTest was created on 31 March 2022 to supplement
the following publication:
“The
Development of a Machine Learning Algorithm for Early
Detection of Viral Hepatitis B Infection in
Nigerian
Patients”.

Introduction
Welcome to HepB LiveTest. This is a web-accessible app for prediction of HBV infection in real-time.
To use HepB LiveTest, simply input the values of the four routine blood tests, constituting the predictive rules based on decision thresholds established by our model, then click the predict button to know the HBV infection status of a patient in real-time.
Disclaimer
HepB LiveTest is currently only
available for research purpose to
support dissemination for
independent
testing in other cohorts, and to
encourage further study on the
clinical prediction of HBV
infection using
cutting-edge machine learning
strategies. This tool should not be
used to provide clinical advice; as
further clinical validations are
still in progress to maximise
impact.
Data sharing between independent
researchers and clinicians is
encouraged to expedite direct
translation
of HeB LiveTest to clinical domain.
Prediction
High-risk
Low-risk
HBsAg
Predicted patient result/outcome of HBV test: Negative
Advice: It may be neccesary to vaccinate patient. no further clinical step is required!
Predicted patient result/outcome of HBV test: Positive
Advice: Refer patient for further evaluation and clinical management
