Part C: Early Disease Detection

1. Overview
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), including heart disease, are the leading
cause of death worldwide. Early detection of heart disease is critical for
preventing serious health outcomes and improving the quality of life
for patients. With the increasing availability of medical data, machine
learning models can be used to predict whether a patient is likely to
develop heart disease based on certain health indicators. In this
project, you will build a classification model to predict whether an
individual is likely to have heart disease or not.

2. Problem Statement
You are provided with a dataset that contains health-related
information about individuals. Your task is to develop a machine
learning model that can predict the presence of heart disease based on
the provided features. The target variable in the dataset is "disease,"
which indicates whether a person has heart disease (1) or not (0). You
need to perform the following tasks:
- Data Exploration and Preprocessing: Understand the dataset, handle
missing values, perform feature engineering if necessary, and prepare
the data for model training.
- Model Development: Train a classification model to predict the
presence of heart disease using the features provided in the dataset.
- Model Evaluation: Evaluate the model’s performance using
appropriate classification metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall,
and F1-score. Identify the best-performing model based on these
metrics.
- Insights and Reporting: Analyze the results and provide insights into
which factors are the most significant predictors of heart disease.

3. Dataset Information
The dataset information and variables can be found in the Data
Information.pdf file.

4. Deliverables
- Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA): Analyze the dataset to understand
the distribution of the variables, check for missing data, and identify
any relationships or patterns between the features and the target
variable (disease).
- Data Preprocessing: Handle missing or erroneous values,
normalize/standardize data if necessary, and perform feature
engineering if required.
- Model Development: Train various classification models (e.g., Logistic
Regression, Decision Trees, SVM, etc.) and compare their performance.
- Model Evaluation: Evaluate your models using performance metrics
such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.
- Insights and Conclusion: Based on your model and analysis, provide
insights into the factors that are most predictive of heart disease and
make recommendations on how to improve heart disease prediction
models.
5. Success Criteria
- A well-documented Jupyter notebook or code file showcasing the
entire workflow from data exploration to model evaluation.
- Insights derived from the data and model results that provide a better
understanding of the risk factors associated with heart disease.

6. Guidelines
- Make sure to split your data into training and testing sets to avoid
overfitting.
- Tune the hyperparameters of your models to improve performance.
- Report all the steps taken in the data preprocessing, modeling, and
evaluation phases.
- Provide a final model that balances accuracy with interpretability.

7. Tools Required
- Python (with libraries such as pandas, scikit-learn, matplotlib,
seaborn, etc.)
- Jupyter Notebook or any IDE suitable for running Python code
Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Data Exploration and Preprocessing

code
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns

# Load the dataset


data = pd.read_csv('path_to_data_file.csv')

# Display basic information about the dataset


print(data.info())
print(data.describe())

# Visualize the distribution of the target variable (disease)


plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6))
sns.countplot(x='disease', data=data)
plt.title('Distribution of Heart Disease')
plt.xlabel('Disease')
plt.ylabel('Frequency')
plt.show()
# Visualize relationships between features and disease
plt.figure(figsize=(12, 8))
sns.pairplot(data, hue='disease', vars=['age', 'trestbps', 'chol', 'thalach'])
plt.title('Relationships between Features and Disease')
plt.show()

Step 2: Data Preprocessing

code
# Handle missing values (if any)
data = data.dropna()

# Encoding categorical variables (if any)


data = pd.get_dummies(data, drop_first=True)

# Normalize/Standardize data if necessary


from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler

scaler = StandardScaler()
data_scaled = scaler.fit_transform(data)

# Split the data into training and testing sets


from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

X = data.drop('disease', axis=1)
y = data['disease']

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2,


random_state=42)

Step 3: Model Development

Logistic Regression

code
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression

# Logistic Regression
logistic_model = LogisticRegression()
logistic_model.fit(X_train, y_train)

# Prediction using the logistic model


y_pred_logistic = logistic_model.predict(X_test)
Decision Tree Classifier

code
from sklearn.tree import DecisionTreeClassifier

# Decision Tree Classifier


tree_model = DecisionTreeClassifier()
tree_model.fit(X_train, y_train)

# Prediction using the decision tree model


y_pred_tree = tree_model.predict(X_test)
```

Step 4: Model Evaluation

code
from sklearn.metrics import accuracy_score, precision_score,
recall_score, f1_score, confusion_matrix

# Logistic Regression Evaluation


accuracy_logistic = accuracy_score(y_test, y_pred_logistic)
precision_logistic = precision_score(y_test, y_pred_logistic)
recall_logistic = recall_score(y_test, y_pred_logistic)
f1_logistic = f1_score(y_test, y_pred_logistic)
confusion_logistic = confusion_matrix(y_test, y_pred_logistic)

print(f'Logistic Regression - Accuracy: {accuracy_logistic}, Precision:


{precision_logistic}, Recall: {recall_logistic}, F1-Score: {f1_logistic}')
print(f'Confusion Matrix:\n{confusion_logistic}')

# Decision Tree Classifier Evaluation


accuracy_tree = accuracy_score(y_test, y_pred_tree)
precision_tree = precision_score(y_test, y_pred_tree)
recall_tree = recall_score(y_test, y_pred_tree)
f1_tree = f1_score(y_test, y_pred_tree)
confusion_tree = confusion_matrix(y_test, y_pred_tree)

print(f'Decision Tree Classifier - Accuracy: {accuracy_tree}, Precision:


{precision_tree}, Recall: {recall_tree}, F1-Score: {f1_tree}')
print(f'Confusion Matrix:\n{confusion_tree}')
