Diabetes
Diabetes represents a serious health problem in
developed countries with estimated numbers reaching
366 million diabetes cases globally in 2030. It is one
of metabolic diseases where a patient has high blood
sugar either caused by the body failure to produce
enough insulin or the cells failure to respond to the
produced insulin.
Diabetes can be identified by studying on several
readings taken from a patient such as fasting glucose,
sodium, potassium, urea, creatinine, albumin and
many others. Insulin is a natural hormone secreted in
human body to convert sugar, starch and food into
simpler molecules which is then utilized by the cells
to generate energy required by daily life. Due to lack
of insulin this conversion is affected and the sugar
starts getting accumulated in blood stream and thus
increases the blood glucose level and as a result the
person develops diabetes mellitus.

A. Data Analysis
Symptoms, signals are the data used in medical
diagnosis. The data set is obtained from UCI machine
learning repository.
Sets were collected in the survey and from UCI
machine learning repository for the proposed work.
The input values have been assigned based on the
comparisons between the two men where one has
diabetes and other is non diabetic. Based on this a
probability of values is assigned and fed into the
system as inputs. The inputs of the system have been
