In the binary classification task, the Ada Boost Classifier distinguishes survivors from non-survivors, with age, sex, ethnicity, and chronic medical conditions influencing outcomes. In multiclass classification, the Gradient Boosting Classifier categorizes patients into outcome groups.
Demographic variables, especially age, are crucial for predicting COVID-19 outcomes for both the binary and multiclass classification tasks.
