Abstract

A number of machine learning models have been applied to a prediction or classification task of diabetes. These models either tried to categorise patients into insulin and non-insulin, or anticipate the patients’ blood surge rate. Most medical experts have realised that there is a great relationship between patient’s symptoms with some chronic diseases and the blood sugar rate. This paper proposes a diabetes-chronic disease prediction-description model in the form of two sub-modules to verify this relationship. The first sub-module uses Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to classify the types of case and to predict the rate of fasting blood sugar (FBS) of patients. The post-process module is used to figure out the relations between the FBS and symptoms with prediction rate. The second sub-module describes the impact of the rate of FBS and the symptoms on the patient’s health. Decision Trees (DT) is used to achieve the description part of diabetes symptoms.
