Cardiac disease prediction using AI algorithms with SelectKBest
AbstractAtherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), which includes coronary heart disease (CHD) and ischemic stroke, is the leading cause of mortality globally. According to the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), 26 million people worldwide have heart disease, with 3.6 million diagnosed each year. Early detection of heart disease will aid in lowering the mortality rate. The lack of diversity in training data and the difficulty in comprehending the findings of complicated AI models are the key issues in current research for heart disease prediction using artificial intelligence. To overcome this, in this paper, cardi...
