A Machine Learning Framework for Serogroup Classification of pathogenic species of Leptospira Based on rfb Locus Profiles

Edson de Carvalo Ferreira Filho, Pedro Melo Arruda, Leonardo Cabral Afonso Ferreira…·Tetsu Sakamoto

This paper develops a machine learning framework to classify Leptospira serogroups using genomic data, achieving high accuracy and offering a scalable alternative to traditional serological methods.
