Abstract:
Parkinson disease has become one of the most common diseases among people over the age of 65. Neurodegenerative disease affects movement, speech and other cognitive abilities. Among patients, the symptoms vary at a different rate, for which diagnosis of the disease sometimes takes years by when treatment is no longer an option. However, using machine learning algorithms to classify the symptoms among patients, it is possible for early detection of the disease. İn this paper, the performance of machine learning algorithms are measures that can detect Parkinson disease. Three different datasets are used for the study. Each dataset goes through various feature selection techniques. Machine learning classifiers such as KNN, LDA, NB, LR, SVM, DT, RT, RF and ANN are implemented on the datasets and their performance is measured. It is observed that SVM has a high accuracy rate of prediction over all the feature selection techniques in all the datasets.
