Application of Machine Learning for Cardiovascular Disease Risk Prediction

Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a common cause of heart failure globally. The need to explore possible ways to tackle the disease necessitated this study. The study designed a machine learning model for cardiovascular disease risk prediction in accordance with a dataset that contains 11 features which may be used to forecast the disease. The dataset from Kaggle on cardiovascular disease includes approximately 70,000 patient records that were used to determine the outcome. Compared to the UCI dataset, the Kaggle dataset has many more training and validation records. Models created using neural networks, random forests, Bayesian networks, C5.0, and QUEST were compared for this dataset. On training and testing data sets, the results acquired a high accuracy (99.1 percent), which is significantly superior to previous methods. Ahead-of-time detection and diagnosis of cardiac disease, as well as better treatment outcomes, are strong possibilities for the suggested prediction model. Additionally, it may help patients better manage their illness or life forms in order to increase their chances of recovery/survival. The result showed greater accuracy and promising signs that machine-learning algorithms can indeed assist in early identification of the disease and improvement of the treatment outcome.

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Algorithms in Modern Cardiology

“…Classical ML algorithms, although powerful and widely used, come with certain drawbacks when applied to heart disease prognosis [24], [25], [26], [27], [28].…”

Assessment of Cardiovascular Disease Using Machine Learning

“…This study combines the analysis of multichannel SCG data with a new approach for collecting cardiac data. An early warning system is implemented to monitor a person's cardiac activities, and the accuracy of the system is assessed using only the ECG data [14]. The assessment demonstrates an 88% accuracy, indicating the viability and practicality [15,16] of the proposed early warning system.…”

Predicting Male Infertility Using Artificial Neural Networks: A Review of the Literature

“…Predictive analytics in medicine leverages AI to forecast patient outcomes, identify potential health risks, and optimize care pathways using algorithms such as the Random Forest (RF) Classifier [19,20]. Exploiting different types of information AI models can forecast the commencement and advancement of diseases, such as in the study of heart disease [21], cancer [22], and diabetes [23], in which AI models have already proven their efficiency in facilitating timely intervention and tailored healthcare strategies.…”
