Abstract
Diabetes is considered as one of the deadliest and chronic diseases which causes
an increase in blood sugar. Many complications occur if diabetes remains
untreated and unidentified. The tedious identifying process results in visiting of a
patient to a diagnostic center and consulting doctor. But the rise in machine
learning approaches solves this critical problem. The motive of this project is to
design a model which can prognosticate the likelihood of diabetes in patients with
maximum accuracy. Therefore, machine learning classification algorithm namely
SVM (Support Vector Machine) is used in this experiment to detect diabetes at an
early stage. Experiments are performed on Pima Indians Diabetes Database
(PIDD) which is sourced from Kaggle website. The performances algorithms are
evaluated on various measures like Precision, Accuracy, F-Measure, and Recall.
Accuracy is measured over correctly and incorrectly classified instances. Results
obtained show SVM outperforms with the accuracy of 76.30%. These results are
verified using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves in a proper and
systematic manner.
