PREDICTION OF ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASES WITH NAÏVE BAYES CLASSIFIER IN R STUDIO Authors: Chaithra N , MADHU B AND ASHA SRINIVASAN
ABSTRACT
Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of death in the world, caused
by disorders of the heart and blood vessels. Among all the heart related diseases, IHD is
more prevalent in Indian population. Naïve Bayes algorithms refers to a classification
technique that depends on the application of Bayes theorem and which is the best model in
machine learning. It is relatively simple to build a model to obtain the estimated probability
for a prediction and capable of handling extremely large datasets.
Methodology: A retrospective study was designed to access the 7304 echocardiography
records of patients who underwent transthoracic echocardiography at Department
Cardiology, JSS Hospital in the year 2016. A model was developed with ECHO database
using Naive Bayes classifier. The dataset consists of 6191 patients without IHD and 1113
patients with IHD along with their ECHO parameters.
Results: The model can be trained using naivebayes, e1071 and caret packages, which
allows us to perform Naïve Bayes in a powerful and scalable architecture. The final output
displays that a Naive Bayes classifier was built which has the capability of predicting
whether a person suffers from IHD or not, with an accuracy of approximately 95%. The
value of Kappa Statistc (0.810), Precision (0.838), F – Score (0.839) and ROC (0.969).
Conclusion: The Naïve Bayes model is implemented in R-studio as an application, which
takes ECHO parameter as an input and it was tested for its accuracy (95 %) in predict
disease risk.
