AbstractLeishmaniasis is an endemic parasitic disease, predominantly found in the poor locality of Africa, Asia and Latin America. It is associated with malnutrition, weak immune system of people and their housing locality. At present, it is diagnosed by microscopic identification, molecular and biochemical characterisation or serum analysis for parasitic compounds. In this study, we present a new approach for diagnosing Leishmaniasis using cognitive computing. The Genetic datasets of leishmaniasis are collected from Gene Expression Omnibus database and it’s then processed. The algorithm for training and developing a model, based on the data is prepared and coded using python. The algorithm and their corresponding datasets are integrated using TensorFlow dataframe. A feed forward Artificial Neural Network trained model with multi-layer perceptron is developed as a diagnosing model for Leishmaniasis, using genetic dataset. It is developed using recurrent neural network. The cognitive model of the trained network is interpreted using the maps and mathematical formula of the influencing parameters. The credit of the system is measured using the accuracy, loss and error of the system. This integrated system of the leishmaniasis genetic dataset and neural network proved to be the good choice for diagnosis with higher accuracy and lower error. Through this approach, all records of the data are effectively incorporated into the system. The experimental results of feed forward multilayer perceptron model after normalization; mean square error (219.84), loss function (1.94) and accuracy (85.71%) of the model, shows good fit of model with the process and it could possibly serve as a better solution for diagnosing Leishmaniasis in future, using genetic datasets.The code is available in Github repository:https://github.com/shailzasingh/Machine-Learning-code-for-analyzing-genetic-dataset-in-Leishmaniasis
