Primary Stage of Diabetes Prediction using Machine Learning Approaches

As per the report of the World Health Organization (WHO), diabetes has become one of the rapidly expanding chronic diseases that has affected the life of 422 million people all over the world. The number of deaths in Bangladesh due to diabetes has reached 28,065, which is 3.61% of the total deaths of Bangladesh, according to the latest data published by the WHO in 2018. So we need to be concerned about the risks of diabetes disease. If we cannot take proper steps to diagnose diabetes at an early stage, eventually we have to face serious health issues. In this paper, we have shown the relation of different symptoms and diseases that cause diabetes so that we can help a person to diagnose diabetes at an early stage. Nowadays, machine learning classification approaches are well accepted by researchers for developing disease risk prediction models. Therefore eleven machine learning classification algorithms such as Logistic Regression (LR), Gaussian Process (GP), Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost), Decision Tree (DT), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Bernoulli Naive Bayes (BNB), Bagging Classifier (BC), Random Forest (RF), and Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (QDA) have been used in this study. Among all these machine learning classifiers, Random Forest (RF) classifier has showed the best accuracy of 98%. And its Area Under Curve(AUC) is also the highest.
