Enhancing Heart Disease Prediction Accuracy through Machine Learning Techniques and Optimization

In the medical domain, early identification of cardiovascular issues poses a significant challenge. This study enhances heart disease prediction accuracy using machine learning techniques. Six algorithms (random forest, K-nearest neighbor, logistic regression, Naïve Bayes, gradient boosting, and AdaBoost classifier) are utilized, with datasets from the Cleveland and IEEE Dataport. Optimizing model accuracy, GridsearchCV, and five-fold cross-validation are employed. In the Cleveland dataset, logistic regression surpassed others with 90.16% accuracy, while AdaBoost excelled in the IEEE Dataport dataset, achieving 90% accuracy. A soft voting ensemble classifier combining all six algorithms further enhanced…
