An Efficient Machine Learning Model Based on Improved Features Selections for Early and Accurate Heart Disease Predication

Abstract

Coronary heart disease has an intense impact on human life. Medical history-based diagnosis of heart disease has been practiced but deemed unreliable. Machine learning algorithms are more reliable and efficient in classifying, e.g., with or without cardiac disease. Heart disease detection must be precise and accurate to prevent human loss. However, previous research studies have several shortcomings, for example,take enough time to compute while other techniques are quick but not accurate. This research study is conducted to address the existing problem and to construct an accurate machine learning model for predicting heart disease. Our model is evaluated based on five feature selection algorithms and performance assessment matrix such as accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, MCC, and time complexity parameters. The proposed work has been tested on all of the dataset'sfeatures as well as a subset of them. The reduction of features has an impact on theperformance of classifiers in terms of the evaluation matrix and execution time. Experimental results of the support vector machine, K-nearest neighbor, and logistic regression are 97.5%,95 %, and 93% (accuracy) with reduced computation timesof 4.4, 7.3, and 8seconds respectively.
