Heart disease is among the leading causes of mortality globally. Predicting cardiovascular disease is a major difficulty in clinical data analysis. AI has been demonstrated to be powerful in deciding and anticipating an enormous measure of information created by the health domain. We provide a unique method for finding essential traits employing machine learning approaches in this paper, which enhances the effectiveness of identifying heart diseases. Decision tree (DT), support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) are the classification techniques used to create the proposed system. Ensemble stacking integrates the four classification models to create a single best-fit predictive model using logistic regression. Many explorations have been directed at the identification of cardiac infection; however, the exactness of the outcomes is poor. Accordingly, to further enhance the efficiency, Moth-Flame Optimization (MFO) algorithm is proposed. The feature selection strategies are used to improve the classification accuracy while shortening the execution time of the classification system. Medical data are used to assess the probability of heart disease based on BP, age, gender, chest ache, cholesterol, blood sugar, and other variables. Results revealed that the proposed system excelled other existing models, obtaining 99% accuracy in the Cleveland dataset. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the most common causes of death that kills approximately 17 million people annually. The main reasons behind CVD are myocardial infarction and the failure of the heart to pump blood normally. Doctors could diagnose heart failure (HF) through electronic medical records on the basis of patient's symptoms and clinical laboratory investigations. However, accurate diagnosis of HF requires medical resources and expert practitioners that are not always available, thus making the diagnosing challengeable. Therefore, predicting the patients' condition by using machine learning algorithms is a necessity to save time and efforts. This paper proposed a machine-learning-based approach that distinguishes the most important correlated features amongst patients' electronic clinical records. The SelectKBest function was applied with chi-squared statistical method to determine the most important features, and then feature engineering method has been applied to create new features correlated strongly in order to train machine learning models and obtain promising results. Optimised hyperparameter classification algorithms SVM, KNN, Decision Tree, Random Forest, and Logistic Regression were used to train two different datasets. The first dataset, called Cleveland, consisted of 303 records. The second dataset, which was used for predicting HF, consisted of 299 records. Experimental results showed that the Random Forest algorithm achieved accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 scores of 95%, 97.62%, 95.35%, and 96.47%, respectively, during the test phase for the second dataset. The same algorithm achieved accuracy scores of 100% for the first dataset and 97.68% for the second dataset, while 100% precision, recall, and F1 scores were reached for both datasets.
