In January 2020, COVID19 plunged the whole planet into a pandemic. This has caused great economic losses and is causing social confusion. COVID19 has a superior infection rate among people with underlying disease such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, depression, and cancer. In addition, it was studied that patients with underlying disease had a higher fatality rate than those without underlying disease. In this study, the presence or absence of underlying disease was classified using EEG data. The data used to classify the presence or absence of underlying disease was EEG data provided by Data Science lab, consisting of 33 features and 69 samples. Z-score was used for data pretreatment. Classification was performed using the neural network NEWFM and ZNN engine. As a result of the classification of the presence or absence of the underlying disease, the experimental results were 77.945 for NEWFM and 76.4% for ZNN. Through this study, it is expected that EEG data can be measured, the presence or absence of an underlying disease is classified, and those with a high infection rate can be prevented from COVID19. Based on this, there is a need for research that can subdivide underlying disease in the future and research on the effects of each underlying disease on infectious disease.
