Correlation Feature Selection (CFS) and Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) for diabetes disease prediction

Abstract

The healthcare sector is a broad area with the abundance of patient information, which creates enormously large records day by day. Though the scientific industry is rich in information but it is poor in knowledge. Diabetics are considered as a primary health issue of the world. As per the WHO 2014 survey According to WHO 2014 report, over 422 million people are affected from the diabetics globally. In the minimization of massive investigations implied on the patients, the data mining uses many mechanisms and strategies to diagnose the diabetic problem. The main objective of this proposal is to introduce assemble Data Mining based Diabetes Disease Prediction System which provides a detailed analysis of diabetics using the database of diabetics patient. The formulated work comprises of two stages such as feature selection ad prediction methods which are made known to maximize the outputs of diabetes disease prediction. Initially Correlation Feature Selection (CFS) is formulated to identify the salient features for the diabetic repository. The identified features are fed into the classifier named Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) classifier. As the diabetic of the patient is classified using PNN meanwhile the accuracy can be fine - tuned when using the identified features. Depending on the category of data, the diabetic information is gathered from the learning repository. The outputs are correlated with the current algorithms namely Back Propagation Neural Network (BPNN), Multilayer Perceptron, Neural Network (MLPNN) were used to fetch the outputs.
