A REVIEW ON MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES FOR ADVANCED HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS

Artificial intelligence is the technology that lets a machine mimic the thinking ability of a human being. Machine learning is the subset of AI, that makes this machine exhibit human behavior by making it learn from the known data, without the need of explicitly programming it. The health care sector has adopted this technology, for the development of medical procedures, maintaining huge patient's records, assist physicians in the prediction, detection, and treatment of diseases and many more. In this paper, a comparative study of six supervised machine learning algorithms namely Logistic Regression(LR),support vector machine(SVM),Decision Tree(DT).Random Forest(RF),k-nearest neighbor(kNN),Naive Bayes (NB) are made for the classification and prediction of diseases. Result shows out of compared supervised learning algorithms here, logistic regression is performing best with an accuracy of 81.4 % and the least performing is k-NN with just an accuracy of 69.01% in the classification and prediction of diseases.
