Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects movement and motor skills. Early diagnosis and treatment of Parkinson's disease are crucial for improving patient outcomes; however, traditional diagnostic methods are time-consuming and subject to observer bias. This study aims to use a machine learning model for the detection of Parkinson's disease. The model will be trained on a public repository dataset of biomedical voice measurements from individuals with and without Parkinson's disease and its performance will be evaluated in terms of accuracy and precision. The results of this study have the potential to revolutionize the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease by providing a fast, non-invasive, and reliable diagnostic tool. The study's results could also have implications for the development of similar diagnostic tools for other neurodegenerative disorders.
