Abstract: Time series classification is a challenging and exciting problem in data mining. Some diseases are classified and diagnosed based on time series. Such is the case for diabetes mellitus, which can be analyzed based on data from the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Prompt diagnosis of diabetes mellitus is essential for disease management. Diabetes mellitus does not appear suddenly; instead, the patient presents symptoms of impaired glucose tolerance that can also be diagnosed via glucose tolerance testing. This work presents a classification and diagnosis scheme for diseases, specifically diabetes mellitus and poor glucose tolerance, using deep neural networks based on time series data. In addition, data from virtual patients were obtained through the Dalla Man and UVA/Padova models; the validation was carried out with data from actual patients. The results show that deep neural networks have an accuracy of 96%. This indicates that DNNs is a helpful tool that can improve the diagnosis and classification of diseases in early detection.
