Smart Diagnostics: Exploring AI-Based Models for Disease Forecasting and Timely Identification
Abstract
This paper proposes a novel system for predicting diseases, utilizing machine learning methods to facilitate early identification and elevate patient care quality. This study presents an advanced smart disease prediction system that harnesses machine learning to improve early diagnosis and optimize healthcare outcomes. As chronic and lifestyle-related diseases become more prevalent, conventional diagnostic approaches often struggle with speed and accuracy. To address these challenges, the proposed system employs the Random Forest algorithm to analyze patient symptoms and medical history for disease prediction. The dataset includes a diverse range of patient records, capturing symptom patterns and corresponding diagnoses. Experimental findings confirm the system’s effectiveness across various test scenarios, highlighting its potential to support healthcare professionals in making timely decisions and delivering personalized patient care
