Optimized Feature Selection and Deep Neural Networks to Improve Heart Disease Prediction.

Heart disease remains a significant health threat due to its high mortality rate and increasing prevalence. Early prediction using basic physical markers from routine exams is crucial for timely diagnosis and intervention. However, manual analysis of large datasets can be labor-intensive and error-prone. Our goal is to rapidly and reliably anticipate cardiac disease using a variety of body signs. This research presents a unique model for heart disease prediction. We provide a system for predicting cardiac disease that blends the deep convolutional neural network with a feature selection technique based on the LinearSVC. This integrated feature selection method selects a subset of characteristics that are strongly linked with heart disease. We feed these features into the deep conventual neural network that we constructed. Also to improve the speed of the predictor and avoid gradient varnishing or explosion, the network's hyperparameters were tuned using the random search algorithm. The proposed method was evaluated using the UCI and MIT datasets. The predictor is evaluated using a number of indicators, such as accuracy, recall, precision, and F1 score. The results demonstrate that our model attains accuracy rates of 98.16%, 98.2%, 95.38%, and 97.84% in the UCI dataset, with an average MCC score of 90%. These results affirm the efficacy and reliability of the proposed technique to predict heart disease.
