Optimizing Heart Failure Detection: A Comparison between Naive Bayes and Particle Swarm Optimization

Abstract

This research focuses on the importance of early detection of heart failure which is a serious global health problem. Given the variety of symptoms of heart failure, accurate early detection methods are needed with the aim of reducing the impact of this disease. This study uses the Naïve Bayes (NB) method which has been proven effective in classifying heart failure with significant variations in accuracy by integrating Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to improve the model. The evaluation model involves a confusion matrix including accuracy, precision, recall, and Area Under the Curve. The research results show that the integration of PSO in NB results in an increase in accuracy of 7.73%, an increase in precision of 6.42%, and an increase in recall of 1.93%. Although there was a small decrease in AUC. This research shows that the success of NB with PSO can help improve the performance of early detection of heart failure. This indicates the importance of this research in developing more accurate and effective detection methods for critical health conditions such as heart failure.
