Abstract


Diabetes Prediction Using Machine Learning Techniques: A Brief Overview

Authors: Oana Virgolici, Bogdana Virgolici.

Diabetes Mellitus is a severe, chronic disease that occurs when blood glucose levels rise above certain limits. Over the last years, machine and deep learning techniques have been used to predict diabetes and its complications. In this brief review, about 60 studies were included, in chronological order. It is difficult to determine which of the presented models has the best performance, due to there is considerable heterogeneity regarding the databases used, the data preprocessing methods and the algorithms used in the studies. Improving the interdisciplinary communication between doctor and computer scientist will help to make the application of artificial intelligence more efficient in medicine. In this way, the needs expressed by doctors can be solved more easily with these algorithms.
