One of the main reasons for disability and premature mortality in the world is diabetes disease, which can cause different sorts of damage to organs such as kidneys, eyes, and heart arteries. The deaths by diabetes are increasing each year, so the need to develop a system that can effectively diagnose diabetes patients becomes inevitable. In this work, an efficient medical decision system for diabetes prediction based on Deep Neural Network (DNN) is presented. Such algorithms are state-of-the-art in computer vision, language processing, and image analysis, and when applied in healthcare for prediction and diagnosis purposes, these algorithms can produce highly accurate results. Moreover, they can be combined with medical knowledge to improve decision-making effectiveness, adaptability, and transparency. A performance comparison between the DNN algorithm and some well-known machine learning techniques as well as the state-of-the-art methods is presented. The obtained results showed that our proposed method based on the DNN technique provides promising performances with an accuracy of 99.75% and an F1-score of 99.66%. This improvement can reduce time, efforts, and labor in healthcare services as well as increasing the final decision accuracy.
Nowadays, one of the main reasons for disability and mortality premature in the world is the heart disease, which make its prediction is a critical challenge in the area of healthcare systems. In this paper, we propose a heart disease prediction system based on Neighborhood Component Analysis (NCA) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). In fact, NCA is used for selecting the most relevant parameters to make a good decision. This can seriously reduce the time, materials, and labor to get the final decision while increasing the prediction performance. Besides, the binary SVM is used for predicting the selected parameters in order to identify the presence/absence of heart disease. The conducted experiments on real heart disease dataset show that the proposed system achieved 85.43% of prediction accuracy. This performance is 1.99% higher than the accuracy obtained with the whole parameters. Also, the proposed system outperforms the state-of-the-art heart disease prediction.
