Diabetes Mellitus Disease Prediction Using Machine Learning Classifiers with Oversampling and Feature Augmentation.

The technical improvements in healthcare sector today have given rise to many new inventions in the field of artificial intelligence. Patterns for disease identification are carried out, and the onset of prediction of many diseases is detected. Diseases include diabetes mellitus disease, fatal heart diseases, and symptomatic cancer. There are many algorithms that have played a critical role in the prediction of diseases. This paper proposes an ML based approach for diabetes mellitus disease prediction. For diabetes prediction, many ML algorithms are compared and used in the proposed work, and finally the three ML classifiers providing the highest accuracy are determined: RF, GBM, and LGBM. The accuracy of prediction is obtained using two types of datasets. They are Pima Indians dataset and a curated dataset. The ML classifiers LGBM, GB, and RF are used to build a predictive model, and the accuracy of each classifier is noted and compared. In addition to the generalized prediction mechanism, the data augmentation technique is also used, and the final accuracy of prediction is obtained for the classifiers LGBM, GB, and RF. A comparative study and demonstration between augmentation and non-augmentation are also discussed for the two datasets used in order to further improve the performance accuracy for predicting diabetes disease.
