Abstract

Advances in computing power and the development of artificial intelligence enable a computer to find hidden insights from data without being programmed. These innovations made revolutions in all parts of science and also in the healthcare field. Machine learning provides a way to automatically find patterns from the data. Medical diagnosis is one of the important aspects of the healthcare domain. The proposed system is intended to make an automated system for disease diagnosis that can infer possible disease from the data given by the user. It can also provide relevant information related to health-related problems. The system can provide an immediate response to the user. Deep Learning, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Decision Tree are the different machine learning algorithms used in this work to build a computer-aided diagnosis system. Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance feature selection method extracting relevant features from disease datasets for training the models. By integrating the outcomes from each classifier using the Ensemble method increases the performance of the system. Using majority voting as the strategy, the ensemble method provides more reliable predictions than the individual classifiers. An efficient automated disease diagnosis system can provide valuable assistance in the healthcare field.
