  1. *Lee et al. 20129 and Park et al. 202210 When Lee model’s + RHR (Park et al., 2022) performance was tested, data from 2019, 2020 were used to build prediction model and data from 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 were used to validate. WC: Waist circumference, RHR: Resting heart rate, LGBM: Light Gradient Boosting Machine, XGB: Extreme Gradient Boosting, Ada: Ada Boost, AUC: The receiver operating characteristics curve under the curve. For this study, five different machine learning classification algorithms were used to predict undiagnosed diabetes. Based on their performance assessed by AUC, results from the best performed machine learning classification was used.
