The high levels of blood sugar
(or glucose) that occur in diabetes can damage organs such as the
heart, blood vessels, eyes, kidneys, and nerves in time. Type 2 diabetes
typically affects adults and is most prevalent in adults due to an
insufficient supply of insulin. On the other hand, Diabetes type 1, also
known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is a chronic
disease in which the body cannot produce insulin on its own. Diabetes
prevalence has increased over the past three decades at every income
level. Affordable treatment is vital for those with diabetes. Several
cost-effective interventions can improve patient outcomes. However, a
diagnosis of this disease can be costly and difficult. The aim of this
research is, therefore, to demonstrate a comparative analysis and
improved performance using deep learning to classify diabetic and
non-diabetic patients that will provide a feasible way to diagnose this
chronic disease. In this work, we used a neural network model with very
low variance applying the synthetic minority oversampling technique to
augment and improve the variety of data. By removing imbalances and
classifying diabetes based on different features, our model achieved an
accuracy of approximately 99 % for training and 98 % for validation.
