High blood pressure or hypertension is one of the major health problems in the world. Although this disease can be treated, many individuals are unaware that they have hypertension, because the symptoms are often not visible or felt. Therefore, early detection of high blood pressure is very important to prevent serious complications that can endanger health. In the digital era and advances in information technology, a lot of health data can be used for analysis. One of the rapidly developing approaches to help diagnose disease is by utilizing data mining. Data mining is the process of exploring and analyzing big data to find hidden patterns, information, and knowledge that can be used to support decision making and predictions. One technique in data mining that is often used to predict conditions or diseases is the classification algorithm. However, the comparison of performance between these classification algorithms in the context of hypertension prediction is still limited. This study aims to explore and compare the performance of classification algorithms in predicting hypertension, using a dataset containing medical information about factors that affect a person's blood pressure. The Naive Bayes algorithm is a classification method based on Bayes' theorem and the assumption of independence between features. The C4.5 algorithm is a machine learning algorithm for building decision trees used in data classification. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of a data mining-based decision support system that can be used to detect and predict the risk of hypertension. the accuracy value of the Naive Bayes algorithm is 87.01% and the accuracy value of the C4.5 algorithm is 94.72%. From the process that has been carried out, it can be said that the C4.5 algorithm is an algorithm with better performance than the Naive Bayes algorithm. Thus, the model used in the process of diagnosing hypertension is the model of the C4.5 algorithm.
