SmartCare: A Symptoms Based Disease Prediction Model Using Machine Learning Approach

Abstract

Abstract: The breakthrough on computer-based technology has resulted in storage of a lot of electronic data in the healthcare industry. Machine Learning technology has been proven beneficial in giving an immeasurable platform in the medical field so that health care issues can be resolved effortlessly and expeditiously. Prediction of disease at early stage could help people from getting the necessary treatment on time. These days many virtual prediction models are available for the same. The existing systems either made use of only one algorithm or prediction system were capable for predicting only one disease. The maximum accuracy of the existing systems range between 52% to 88%. The algorithms used in various prediction system consisted of Linear Regression, Decision Tree, Naïve Bayes, KNN, CNN, Random Forest Tree, etc. In our project i.e., “SmartCare: A Symptoms Based Disease Prediction Model Using Machine Learning Approach”, it is possible to predict more than one disease at a time. So, the user does not need to traverse many models to predict the diseases. It will help to reduce the time and cost of predicting diseases at prior stages, so as to prevent the extremities of it and thus, there is a chance of reducing mortality rate.
