Diagnosis of Diabetes using an Extreme Learning Machine Algorithm based Model

Abstract

Diabetes is a disorder caused by an increase in blood glucose levels due to insulin secretion deficiency (type 1 diabetes) or impaired insulin activity (type 2 diabetes). More than 90% of people with this condition are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Diabetes is now the leading cause of blindness, end-stage renal failure, non-traumatic limb amputations, heart disease, and stroke. Due to the high prevalence of type 2 diabetes in recent years, the prognosis and early diagnosis of the disease have gained much importance. In this paper a study on the types of diabetes is made and a model is proposed and developed for diagnosis of type 2 diabetes using Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) method.
