Gastric disorders are among the most common health problems faced by society, often caused by irregular eating habits, unhealthy lifestyles, and high stress levels. The symptoms are diverse, ranging from abdominal pain and nausea to weight loss, making accurate and timely diagnosis essential to prevent more serious complications. This study aims to develop a diagnostic system for gastric diseases using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) with the Hebb Rule algorithm, a learning principle that strengthens the connections between neurons when they are activated simultaneously. The research utilized binary-encoded data consisting of ten types of gastric diseases and twenty associated symptoms to establish patterns of correlation between symptoms and diagnoses. The results demonstrate that the system successfully recognized all test data with outcomes consistent with the expected targets, proving that the Hebb Rule is effective in mapping symptom-disease relationships even when applied to simple binary data. These findings highlight the practicality and efficiency of the Hebb Rule in building an intelligent diagnostic framework, while also showing its potential for further development with more complex datasets, such as symptom severity levels or laboratory test results. Ultimately, this research contributes to the advancement of smart medical systems that can support both healthcare professionals and the general public in performing early detection of gastric diseases quickly, accurately, and effectively.
