This paper presents a sensor array with three metal oxide electrodes that can use machine learning methods to identify four distinct VOCsin a mixture. The metal oxide sensor array was subjected to various VOC concentrations, including ethanol, acetone, toluene and chloroform. The dataset obtained from individual gases and their mixtures were analyzed using multiple machine learning algorithms, such as Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Decision Tree, Linear Regression, Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes, Linear Discriminant Analysis, Artificial Neural Network, and Support Vector Machine. KNN and RF have shown more than 99% accuracy in classifying different varying chemicals in the gas mixtures. In regression analysis, KNN has delivered the  \nbest results with R2 value of more than 0.99 and LOD of 0 .012, 0.015, 0.014 and 0.025 PPM  \nfor predicting the concentrations of varying chemicals Acetone, Toluene, Ethanol, and Chloroform, respectively in complex mixtures. Therefore, it is demonstrated that the array utilizing the provided algorithms can classify and predict the concentrations of the four gases simultaneously for disease diagnosis and treatment monitoring.  \nKey words: Gas sensor array, Metal oxide, Volatile Organic Compound, Complex mixture, Machine learning.  \n1. Introduction  \nModern technology is becoming even more essential for applications relating to healthcare. Consequently, there is much interest in reducing surgical involvement and enhancing illness early identification. Since it is quicker, less intrusive, and more accessible than a traditional clinical assessment, identifying certain illnesses employing human exhaled air has garnered great interest[1-3] . In this context, exhaled breath is the ideal non-invasive approach since it accurately captures the metabolic processes occurring within the human body[4, 5] . Compared to standard urine or serum tests, disease identification utilizing expiratory VOCs has emerged as the preferable approach for early screening. Besides, it has another excellent relevance for continuous breath monitoring for knowing health anomalies that appear transient or periodic[6] . Breath monitoring has several benefits, the most significant among them being a simple, quick, and straightforward sampling collection method provided by its non-invasive approach[7]. Many (about hundreds) of volatile chemical molecules are found in an individual's breath[4] . Some Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) chemicals, notably isoprene (heart disease), acetone (diabetes), toluene (lung cancer), nitrogen monoxide (asthma), pentane (heart disease) and ammonia (kidney dysfunction) are established indicators that anticipate underlying disorders[8-10] . However, as shown in Fig. 1(a), several variables affect the constitution of exhaled breath and can be broadly classified as lifestyle-based, health-based and environment based.  \nThe usual range for toxicants in a person's exhaled breath is between parts per billion (PPB) to parts per trillion (PPT)[11] . The number of VOCs and their relative proportions are specific to the health of individuals, or unexpected VOCs may be released
