Use of Data Mining in the prediction of risk factors of Type 2 diabetes mellitus in Gulf countries

Prevalence of diabetes in Gulf countries is knowing a significant increase because of various risk factors, such as: obesity, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity and smoking.  The aim of our proposed study is to use Data Mining and Data Analysis tools in order to determine different risk factors of the development of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Gulf countries, from Gulf COAST dataset.
