Abstract

Data mining and machine learning are the most interesting research areas which find meaningful information from the large amount of data available, and converts into understandable form for further use. Diabetes is one of the growing diseases all over the world. Health trade professionals desire a reliable prediction system to diagnose polygenic disease. Tools and techniques available will be used to find the appropriate approaches and methods for classification of diabetes and in extracting valuable pattern. The Spark software was employed as a mining tool for diagnosing diabetes. Thus, using the spark, the performance of KNN Classification can be improved.
