Diagnosing Chronic Kidney disease using Artificial Neural Network (ANN)
Keywords:
Machine learning, Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Chronic kidney disease(CKD) , Google Colab NotebookAbstract
The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD), brought on by environmental pollution and a lack
of safeguards for people's health, is rising globally. A slow and steady decrease in kidney function
over many years is chronic kidney disease (CKD). A person may eventually get renal failure. Using
artificial neural networks in concert with the machine learning techniques (ANN), Keras, and Google
Colab Notebook for serial model construction, this study intends to propose a potent method for
identifying chronic kidney disease.
This study looked into ANN's accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in the diagnosis of CKD. Based
on the dataset's purpose, categorization of technology's effectiveness. In order to decrease the feature
dimension and increase classification system accuracy, an algorithm model including ANN has been
developed.
Results indicate that ANN architecture, which was used, achieved the best accuracy (98.56%),
whereas other methods, such as SVM, Random-forest, and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), delivered
accuracy levels that were lower than those of ANN.
