Heart disease prediction using machine learning algorithms

Abstract

Heart disease is among the conditions that people suffer from most frequently. Millions of people worldwide pass away each year as a result of it, making it one of the main causes of mortality. Heart disease can be characterised by issues with the heart valves, heart failure, arrhythmias, and coronary artery disease. Heart disease comes in more than 30 distinct forms. By allowing for prompt intervention and the right kind of care, early and precise cardiac disease prediction can greatly improve patient outcomes. In this model, we investigate the application of machine learning techniques for anticipating cardiac disease. We investigate a large dataset made up of patient details, such as demographics, medical histories, and clinical measures. It is absolutely mind-blowing to think that machine learning algorithms could one day properly forecast when cardiac disease will start and how to diagnose it. Machine learning techniques including logistic regression, decision trees, XGBoost, gradient boosting, random forests, support vector machines (SVMs), and artificial neural networks (ANNs) are utilised to construct predictive models. A hybrid model including ANN, gradient boost, Decision Tree, SVM, random forests, & Logistic Regression makes up the forecasting model. To increase the model's accuracy. To manage missing values, normalise features and solve class imbalance. The dataset has been pre-processed. The best accurate heart disease predictions are found using feature selection approaches. Area under the receiver's operating characteristic curve, recall, accuracy, and precision are some of the performance measures used for training and evaluating the models. The major goal of this model is to put out a novel strategy for creating a model that successfully solves practical issues
