... wadays, the application of Machine learning in the medical field is gradually increasing. This can aid in improving the classification system used for disease diagnosis, that assist medical experts in detecting the fatal diseases at an early stage. This paper presents a performance comparison of the machine learning algorithms in diabetes detection. Techniques like SVM, Random forest, Gradient Boosting, Navie Bayes, Logistic regressionand KNN are used in this work.
