Interpretable machine learning analysis to identify risk factors for diabetes using the anonymous living census data of Japan

ConclusionsNew risk factors for diabetes mellitus were identified based on Japan's non-objective-oriented anonymous census data using interpretable machine learning models. The newly identified risk factors inspire new possible policies for preventing diabetes. Moreover, our analysis certifies that big data can help us find helpful knowledge in today's prosperous society. Our study also paves the way for identifying more risk factors and promoting the efficiency of using big data.
