A comparative analysis on diagnosis of diabetes mellitus using different approaches: A survey

Diabetes Mellitus is commonly known as diabetes. It is one of the most chronic diseases as the World Health Organization (WHO) report shows that the number of diabetes patients has risen from 108 million to 422 million in 2014. Early diagnosis of diabetes is important because it can cause different diseases that include kidney failure, stroke, blindness, heart attacks, and lower limb amputation. Different diabetes diagnosis models are found in literature, but there is still a need to perform a survey to analyze which model is best. This paper performs a literature review for diabetes diagnosis approaches using Artificial Intelligence (neural networks, machine learning, deep learning, hybrid methods, and/or stacked-integrated use of different machine learning algorithms). More than thirty-five papers have been shortlisted that focus on diabetes diagnosis approaches. Different datasets are available online for the diagnosis of diabetes. Pima Indian Diabetes Dataset (PIDD) is the most commonly used for diabetes prediction. In contrast with other datasets, it has key factors which play an important role in diabetes diagnosis. This survey also throws light on the weaknesses of the existing approaches that make them less appropriate for a diabetes diagnosis. In artificial intelligence techniques, deep learning is widespread and in medical research, heart rate is getting more attention. Deep learning combined with other algorithms can give better results in diabetes diagnosis and heart rate should be used for other cardiac disease diagnoses

A Comparative Analysis on the Evaluation of Classification Algorithms in the Prediction of Diabetes

Data mining techniques are applied in many applications as a standard procedure for analyzing the large volume of available data, extracting useful information and knowledge to support the major decision-making processes. Diabetes mellitus is a continuing, general, deadly syndrome occurring all around the world. It is characterized by hyperglycemia occurring due to abnormalities in insulin secretion which would in turn result in irregular rise of glucose level. In recent years, the impact of Diabetes mellitus has increased to a great extent especially in developing countries like India. This is mainly due to the irregularities in the food habits and life style. Thus, early diagnosis and classification of this deadly disease has become an active area of research in the last decade. Numerous clustering and classifications techniques are available in the literature to visualize temporal data to identify trends for controlling diabetes mellitus. This work presents an experimental study of several algorithms which classifies Diabetes Mellitus data effectively. The existing algorithms are analyzed thoroughly to identify their advantages and limitations. The performance assessment of the existing algorithms is carried out to determine the best approach

Machine Learning and Deep Learning Models for Predicting the Onset of Diabetes: A Pilot Study

Diabetes currently one of the most significant worldwide concerns, and its prevalence is only expected to increase in the future years. In order to monitor glucose levels in the blood and set treatment protocols for diabetes, keeping a regular schedule for checking blood glucose levels is essential. The purpose of widespread adoption of digital health in recent years has been to enhance diabetic healthcare for patients, and as a result, a massive quantity of data has been collected that may be used in the ongoing management of this chronic condition. Deep learning, a relatively new kind of machine learning, is one method that has taken advantage of this trend, and its applications seem promising. In this research, we provide a thorough analysis of how deep learning has been used in the study of diabetes thus far. We conducted a comprehensive literature search and found that this method is most often used in the following settings: diabetes diagnosis, glucose control, and the identification of diabetes-related complications. We have described the most important details regarding the learning models used, the development process, the primary outcomes, and the baseline techniques for performance assessment from the 40 original research publications that we selected based on the search. In the reviewed literature, it becomes clear that several deep learning algorithms and frameworks have outperformed traditional machine learning methods to attain state-of-the-art performance on numerous problems involving diabetes. However, we point out several gaps in the existing literature, such as a dearth of readily available data and a lack of clarity in the interpretation of models. In the near future, these obstacles may be surmounted thanks to the fast advancements in deep learning methodologies which will allow for wider application of this technology in therapeutic settings

Early Prediction of Gestational Diabetes with Parameter-Tuned K-Nearest Neighbor Classifier

Diabetes is one of the quickly spreading chronic diseases causing health complications, such as diabetes retinopathy, kidney failure, and cardiovascular disease. Recently, machine-learning techniques have been widely applied to develop a model for the early prediction of diabetes. Due to its simplicity and generalization capability, K-nearest neighbor (KNN) has been one of the widely employed machine learning techniques for diabetes prediction. Early diabetes prediction has a significant role in managing and preventing complications associated with diabetes, such as retinopathy, kidney failure, and cardiovascular disease. However, the prediction of diabetes in the early stage has remained challenging due to the accuracy and reliability of the KNN model. Thus, gird search hyperparameter optimization is employed to tune the K values of the KNN model to improve its effectiveness in predicting diabetes. The developed hyperparameter-tuned KNN model was tested on the diabetes dataset collected from the UCI machine learning data repository. The dataset contains 768 instances and 8 features. The study applied Min-max scaling to scale the data before fitting it to the KNN model. The result revealed KNN model performance improves when the hyperparameter is tuned.  With hyperparameter tuning, the accuracy of KNN improves by 5.29% accuracy achieving 82.5% overall accuracy for predicting diabetes in the early stage. Therefore, the developed KNN model applied to clinical decision-making in predicting diabetes at an early stage. The early identification of diabetes could aid in early intervention, personalized treatment plans, or reducing healthcare costs reducing associated risks such as retinopathy, kidney disease, and cardiovascular disease

A Classification System for Diabetic Patients with Machine Learning Techniques

International audienceDiabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of metallic disorder characterized by steep levels of blood glucose prolonged over a time. It results the defection in insulin production or improper action of the cells to the insulin produced. It is one of the significant public health care challenge worldwide. Diabetes exists in a body when pancreas does not construct enough hormone insulin or the human body is not being able to use the insulin properly. The diagnosis of diabetes (diagnosis, etiopathophysiology, therapy etc.) need to generate and process the vast amount of data. Data mining techniques have proven its usefulness and effectiveness in order to evaluate the unknown relationships or patterns if exists with such vast data. In the present work, five techniques based on machine learning namely, AdaBoost, LogicBoost, RobustBoost, Naïve Bayes and Bagging have been proposed for the analysis and prediction of DM patients. The proposed techniques are employed on the data set of Pima Indians Diabetes patients. The results computed are found to be very accurate with classification accuracy of 81.77% and 79.69% by bagging and AdaBoost techniques, respectively. Hence, the proposed techniques employed here are highly adorable, effective and efficient in order to predict the DM

A modified mayfly-SVM approach for early detection of type 2 diabetes mellitus

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that affects many people in the world badly. Early diagnosis of this disease is of paramount importance as physicians and patients can work towards prevention and mitigation of future complications. Hence, there is a necessity to develop a system that diagnoses type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) at an early stage. Recently, large number of studies have emerged with prediction models to diagnose T2DM. Most importantly, published literature lacks the availability of multi-class studies. Therefore, the primary objective of the study is development of multi-class predictive model by taking advantage of routinely available clinical data in diagnosing T2DM using machine learning algorithms. In this work, modified mayfly-support vector machine is implemented to notice the prediabetic stage accurately. To assess the effectiveness of proposed model, a comparative study was undertaken and was contrasted with T2DM prediction models developed by other researchers from last five years. Proposed model was validated over data collected from local hospitals and the benchmark PIMA dataset available on UCI repository. The study reveals that modified Mayfly-SVM has a considerable edge over metaheuristic optimization algorithms in local as well as global searching capabilities and has attained maximum test accuracy of 94.5% over PIMA

Robust Framework to Combine Diverse Classifiers Assigning Distributed Confidence to Individual Classifiers at Class Level

We have presented a classification framework that combines multiple heterogeneous classifiers in the presence of class label noise. An extension of m-Mediods based modeling is presented that generates model of various classes whilst identifying and filtering noisy training data. This noise free data is further used to learn model for other classifiers such as GMM and SVM. A weight learning method is then introduced to learn weights on each class for different classifiers to construct an ensemble. For this purpose, we applied genetic algorithm to search for an optimal weight vector on which classifier ensemble is expected to give the best accuracy. The proposed approach is evaluated on variety of real life datasets. It is also compared with existing standard ensemble techniques such as Adaboost, Bagging, and Random Subspace Methods. Experimental results show the superiority of proposed ensemble method as compared to its competitors, especially in the presence of class label noise and imbalance classes
