Abstract
In the present days diseases are leading the chart of causes of deaths in human beings , along with road accidents and suicides. The prevention of road acciedents and suicides depends upon the victims individual mental and physical abilities. Hence no body can predict the happening of these two : But in the case of diseases, we can predict the occurance in future depending upon the present health condition of the individuals. Many of the rural areas do not have hospitals and the physicians are not available to do complex tests and predict the diseases. In such situations the disease can be efficiently predicted by observoing and analysing the patients health parameters. The Data Mining techniques can be utilized to do and improve this prediction. Since Data Mining offers many algorithms to implement like Naïve bayes, decision tree and k- nearest neighbour. The present study deals with the usage of KNN algorithm with least and well defined parameters for improving the disease predition. This provides an oppurtunity for easy diognisis of the patients in hospitals and even at home.
