Application and evaluation of Bayesian optimization aim to increase the accuracy of diabetes prediction models.\n\nBackground: Bayesian optimization (BO) has emerged as a powerful technique for hyperparameter tuning in machine learning models with its methodical approach for optimizing complex functions with expensive evaluations. Selecting the optimal hyperparameters for models can significantly increase prediction accuracy in the healthcare sector, particularly for diabetes prediction, hence improving patient outcomes and resource management.\n\nMethodology: Among the well-known diabetes databases used in the study is the Pima Indian Diabetes Database. Among the machine learning models developed and whose hyperparameters are modified via Bayesian optimization are Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forest, and Gradient Boosting Machines (GBM). The optimization process is compared with traditional tuning methods to assess improvements in model performance.\n\nContribution: Problems include the increasing prevalence of diabetes worldwide and the role vital function prediction models play in early diagnosis and therapy. Especially when dealing with enormous datasets common in healthcare, grid search, and random search are sometimes computationally taxing and inefficient. However, Bayesian optimization promises a more practical and economical approach by selecting hyperparameters iteratively based on earlier evaluations.\n\nFindings: Bayesian optimization not only yields faster calculation times but also outperforms traditional methods. More precisely, models adapted by Bayesian optimization show greater sensitivity and specificity, which are crucial for accurate and prompt diabetes diagnosis.\n\nRecommendation for Researchers: By highlighting the specific elements and network characteristics that are behind the anomalies it discovers, on a real-time or large scale dataset.\n\nFuture Research: This work can be improvised using several recent artificial intelligence algorithms with the integration of IoT on real-time datasets.\n\n<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.28945\/5445","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,12]],"date-time":"2025-03-12T17:43:41Z","timestamp":1741801421000},"page":"008","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Bayesian Optimization for Hyperparameter Tuning in Healthcare for Diabetes Prediction"],"prefix":"10.28945","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"Annapantula","family":"Sudhakar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"GMR Institute of Technology"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7632-5878","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sujatha","family":"S","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor, Department of EEE, Sri Sairam College of Engineering"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sathiya","family":"M.","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Professor, Department of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, Karpagam Institute of Technology, Affiliated to Anna University"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3969-9811","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sivaramakrishnan","family":"A","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Professor, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Koneru Lakshmaiah Education Foundation, Vaddeswaram"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Balambigai","family":"Subramanian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Karpagam College of Engineering"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Venkata","family":"Ramana K","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Professor, Department of CSE, QIS College of Engineering and Technology, QIS College of Engineering and Technology"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"11490","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"container-title":["Informing Science: The International Journal of an Emerging Transdiscipline"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.inform.nu\/Articles\/Vol28\/InfoSciV28Art008Sudhakar11086.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/www.inform.nu\/Articles\/Vol28\/InfoSciV28Art008Sudhakar11086.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,12]],"date-time":"2025-03-12T17:43:41Z","timestamp":1741801421000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.informingscience.org\/Publications\/5445"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"references-count":0,"alternative-id":["5445"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.28945\/5445","relation":{},"ISSN":["1547-9684","1521-4672"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1547-9684","type":"print"},{"value":"1521-4672","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}}}
