This research aims to evaluate the Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) diagnosis and prognosis power from heterogeneous environmental, lifestyle and biochemistry data. Model estimation has previously addressed three main actions as: 1) Missingvalue imputation using specific univariant and multivariant imputers accommodated to each particular feature; 2) Quasi-constancy detection in variables; 3) Constructing geographical pollution and rent data from municipality information. Next, different T2D diagnosis and prognosis models are fitted and evaluated, showing increasing performance as more specific features become available while the prediction cost rises as a consequence of requiring more specific data. Finally, four models are obtained: two of them for T2D diagnosis and the other two for T2D prognosis respectively, with performances ranging from 73.3 to 95.41 AUC-ROC. One pair of diagnosis and prognosis models were thought for a global testing that can be done in general locations by only asking general lifestyle-related questions. On the other hand, the other pair, which achieves higher performances, is thought to be applied in a clinical environment where it is easy to obtain more specific biochemistry measures.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
