Heart disease prediction using entropy based feature engineering and ensembling of machine learning classifiers

作者:

Highlights:

• A novel framework for heart disease detection is proposed.

• Handling categorical attributes based on its importance in health care and outcome.

• Covariance-based multivariate outlier detection is used for the outlier detection.

• Proposed Entropy-based FE (EFE) has performed well with ML models.

• The proposed ML pipeline outperformed the state of art works.
