Abstract

Early disease detection reduces mortality and healthcare costs. This study proposes an AI-powered early warning system using age, blood pressure, glucose, and BMI to predict risks for diabetes and heart disease. Random Forest with SHAP-based explainability was selected based on a systematic benchmark of UCI datasets, achieving 78–85% accuracy across studies. The system supports preventive healthcare by delivering interpretable risk alerts to clinicians and patients. Future work includes wearable integration and federated learning for privacy.
