Abstract
In the field of Machine Learning in Healthcare, one of the most compelling factors is the prognosis of illness by examining the characteristics which have the most impact on its recognition. One of the deadliest diseases is a liver disease that accounts for about two million deaths annually worldwide. Prognosticating it in an early stage is helpful to get diagnosed at the right time as this may lead to a complete recovery in some patients. We can effectively prognosticate liver disease using supervised learning techniques specifically classification methods of machine learning. In this paper, different classification methods are applied to the Indian Liver Patient Records Dataset downloaded from kaggle.com to prognosticate liver disease.
