Abstract

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive medical condition that, if left undiagnosed or untreated, can lead to kidney failure and severe health complications. Early detection is crucial to managing the disease and improving patient outcomes. This project aims to develop an intelligent system that accurately predicts the likelihood of CKD based on various clinical parameters such as age, blood pressure, serum creatinine, and others. The system employs advanced data preprocessing techniques, exploratory data analysis, and feature selection methods including correlation heatmaps, LASSO regularization, and wrapper-based techniques to identify the most significant features.Multiple machine learning algorithms—including Random Forest, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, XGBoost, and deep learning hybrid models—are trained and evaluated using performance metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and AUC-ROC. The best-performing model is integrated into a user-friendly web application built using Flask, with a front end developed using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The application allows users to input medical parameters and instantly receives a CKD risk prediction. This system not only aids healthcare professionals in early diagnosis but also empowers users with a tool for proactive health monitoring. The solution is scalable, interpretable, and can be continuously updated with new data to improve prediction accuracy and reliability.
