Feature Based Machine Learning Models for Cardiovascular Disease Diagnosis: An Experimental Analysis
摘要
The heart is widely regarded as the most vital organ within the human body. Cardiovascular diseases are prevalent in contemporary society; hence it is imperative to anticipate and forecast these conditions in advance. The accurate prognosis and prediction of coronary heart diseases necessitate a high level of precision and efficiency, since even a minor error might result in fatality for the individual. In order to address this condition, it is imperative to develop a model that possesses the capability to forecast and generate awareness pertaining to certain illnesses. Determining the disease manually based solely on indications and risk factors presents a significant challenge. However, machine learning techniques can address this issue. This work implements and evaluates the efficiency of machine learning algorithms in predicting cardiovascular diseases. The algorithms used in this work are K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) and the data set used is the UCI repository data. The experimental results prove that the KNN and SVM models exhibit the highest levels of suitability, as evidenced by their respective accuracies of 88% and 84% respectively.
