This article is devoted to applying mathematical models in the differential diagnosis of venous diseases based on microwave radiometry data. A modified approach for transforming feature space in thermometric data is described. After constructing features, a multiclass classification problem is solved in several ways: by reducing to binary classification problems using “one versus rest” and “one versus one” methods and building a multivariate logistic regression model. The best classification model achieved an average balanced accuracy score of 0.574. A key feature of the approach is that classification result can be explained and justified in terms understandable to a diagnostician. This article presents the most significant patterns in thermometric data and the accuracy with which they can identify different classes of diseases.
