Diabetes Prediction Using Machine Learning

R Programming KNN Method

Project Overview

Created a model to predict if a person has diabetes based on multiple factors like age, BMI, HBA1C score etc. This machine learning project utilized the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm to classify individuals based on their health metrics.

Key Achievements

  • Developed a predictive model using the KNN algorithm in R programming
  • Analyzed the impact of various health metrics on diabetes prediction accuracy
  • Optimized the model to achieve high sensitivity and specificity rates
  • Implemented cross-validation techniques to ensure model reliability

Technologies Used

  • R Programming language
  • K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) classification algorithm
  • Data preprocessing and feature engineering techniques
  • Statistical analysis packages in R
