## Installation

To run this project, you need to have the following Python packages installed:


  • pandas

  • numpy

  • seaborn

  • matplotlib

  • scikit-learn

You can install these packages using pip:


pip install pandas numpy seaborn matplotlib scikit-learn

## Usage



  1. Load the dataset

    Load the dataset containing patient data and symptoms using pandas.


  2. Preprocess the data

    Handle missing values, perform feature scaling, and encode categorical variables if needed.


  3. Train the Machine Learning Classifier

    Use the algorithms to classify diseases based on symptoms. The model is trained on a cleaned and preprocessed training dataset.


  4. Evaluate the model

    Evaluate the model's performance on a test set using metrics like accuracy and F1 score.

## Evaluation

The performance of the model is evaluated using:



  • Accuracy: The proportion of correct predictions.


  • F1 Score: A metric that considers both precision and recall, especially useful for imbalanced datasets.
