The study collected demographic data, physical examination results, and laboratory findings. Statistical analyses were performed using IBM SPSS Statistics, Version 26.0. The optimal feature subset was used to develop intelligent diagnostic prediction models based on the Light Gradient Boosting Machine, Explainable Boosting Machine (EBM), Gradient Boosting Classifier (GBC), Fast Interpretable Greedy-Tree Sums, Decision Tree, AdaBoost Classifier, and Logistic Regression.

Analysis was conducted on 31 indicators, including red blood cell distribution width and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. The EBM model demonstrated superior performance relative to other models, with an area under the curve of 0.97, second only to the GBC model. Furthermore, the EBM model exhibited the highest calibration accuracy and maintained its interpretability without relying on external analytical tools such as SHAP and LIME, thus reducing interpretation biases. Platelet distribution width, total protein, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were identified by the model as significant predictors for the diagnosis of Kawasaki disease.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>This study used diverse machine learning models for early diagnosis of Kawasaki disease.
