Ensembling Coalesce of Logistic Regression Classifier for Heart Disease Prediction using Machine Learning

2019 VOLUME-8 ISSUE-10, AUGUST 2019, REGULAR ISSUE  
In today's modern world, the world population is affected with some kind of heart diseases. With the vast knowledge and advancement in applications, the analysis and the identification of the heart disease still remain as a challenging issue. Due to the lack of awareness in the availability of patient symptoms, the prediction of heart disease is a questionable task. The World Health Organization has released that 33% of population were died due to the attack of heart diseases. With this

The prediction of heart disease classes are achieved in four ways. Firstly, The important features are extracted for the various ensembling methods like Extra Trees Regressor, Ada boost regressor, Gradient booster regress, Random forest regressor and Ada boost classifier. Secondly, the highly importance features of each of the ensembling methods is filtered from the dataset and it is fitted to logistic regression classifier to analyze the performance. Thirdly, the same extracted important features of each of the ensembling methods are subjected to feature scaling and then fitted with logistic regression to analyze the performance. Fourth, the Performance analysis is done with the performance metric such as Mean Squared error (MSE), Mean Absolute error (MAE), R2 Score, Explained Variance Score (EVS) and Mean Squared Log Error (MSLE). The implementation is done using python language under Spyder platform with Anaconda Navigator. Experimental results shows that before applying feature scaling, the feature importance extracted from the Ada boost classifier is found to be effective with the MSE of 0.04, MAE of 0.07, R2 Score of 92%, EVS of 0.86 and MSLE of 0.16 as compared to other ensembling methods. Experimental results shows that after applying feature scaling, the feature importance extracted from the Ada boost classifier is found to be effective with the MSE of 0.09, MAE of 0.13, R2 Score of 91%, EVS of 0.93 and MSLE of 0.18 as compared to other ensembling methods.
