Enhanced cardiovascular disease prediction through self-improved Aquila optimized feature selection in quantum neural...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) stands as a pervasive catalyst for illness and mortality on a global scale, underscoring the imperative for sophisticated prediction methodologies within the ambit of healthcare data analysis. The vast volume of medical data available necessitates effective data mining techniques to extract valuable insights for decision-making and prediction. While machine learning algorithms are commonly employed for CVD diagnosis and prediction, the high dimensionality of datasets poses a performance challenge.

This research paper presents a novel hybrid model for predicting CVD, focusing on an optimal feature set. The proposed model encompasses four main stages namely: preprocessing, feature extraction, feature selection (FS), and classification. Initially, data preprocessing eliminates missing and duplicate values. Subsequently, feature extraction is performed to address dimensionality issues, utilizing measures such as central tendency, qualitative variation, degree of dispersion, and symmetrical uncertainty. FS is optimized using the self-improved Aquila optimization approach. Finally, a hybridized model combining long short-term memory and a quantum neural network is trained using the selected features. An algorithm is devised to optimize the LSTM model's weights. Performance evaluation of the proposed approach is conducted against existing models using specific performance measures.
