An Efficient Design and Comparison of Machine Learning Model for Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Disease

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease has a significant global impact. Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of disability and mortality in most developed countries. Cardiovascular disease is a condition that disturbs the structures and functionality of the heart and can also be called heart disease. Cardiovascular diseases require more precise, accurate, and reliable detection and forecasting because even a small inaccuracy might lead to fatigue or mortality. There are very few death occurrences related to cardio sickness, and the amount is expanding rapidly. Predicting this disease at its early stage can be done by employing Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, which may help reduce the number of deaths. Data pre-processing can be employed here to eliminate randomness in data, replace missing data, fill in default values if appropriate, and categorize features for forecasting and making decisions at various levels. This research investigates various parameters that are related to the cause of heart disease. Several models discussed here will come under the supervised learning type of algorithms like Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), and Naïve Bayes (NB) algorithm. The existing dataset of heart disease patients from the Kaggle has been used for the analysis. The dataset includes 300 instances and 13 parameters and 1 label are used for prediction and testing the performance of various algorithms. Predicting the likelihood that a given patient will be affected by the cardiac disease is the goal of this research. The most important purpose of the study is to make better efficiency and precision for the detection of cardiovascular disease in which the target output ultimately matters whether or not a person has heart disease.
