Application of Deep Neural Network in Diabetes Mellitus Prediction with Parameter Optimization Using Particle Swarm Optimization
Main Article Content
Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus is recognized as a chronic condition with a rising incidence worldwide and potentially severe long-term complications if not identified and managed promptly. The ability to predict this disease accurately and at an early stage is crucial within the healthcare domain. This research proposes the development of a classification model for Diabetes Mellitus using a Deep Neural Network (DNN), whose predictive capability is further enhanced by tuning its hyperparameters through the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique. The dataset employed in this study is the Pima Indians Diabetes Dataset, which includes various clinical features such as glucose concentration, blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), and patient age. Prior to model training, the data underwent several preprocessing steps, including normalization, treatment of missing values, and division into training and testing subsets. The DNN model was constructed with multiple hidden layers, while essential parameters—such as learning rate, number of neurons, and batch size—were optimized using PSO to achieve the most effective configuration. Experimental outcomes revealed that the PSO-enhanced DNN outperformed the non-optimized model in terms of classification accuracy. Specifically, without optimization, the Deep Learning model attained 75.00% accuracy, and the Neural Network model achieved 77.86%. After PSO was applied, the accuracy improved to 77.90% and 78.39%, respectively. These findings suggest that the incorporation of PSO contributes positively to the training efficiency and predictive strength of the model in identifying diabetes cases
