Revolutionizing Cardio Vascular Disease Diagnosis Through Lasso Regression Model

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are among the most prevalent and fatal health conditions globally, necessitating early and accurate diagnosis to mitigate risk and enhance treatment outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods often rely on a combination of clinical assessments and static risk models, which can be constrained by their inability to handle the complexity and interrelationships of multiple risk factors. In this research, we propose a novel approach to revolutionizing cardiovascular disease diagnosis through the application of the Lasso (Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator) regression model, a powerful machine learning technique for feature selection and predictive modeling. The Lasso regression model is particularly advantageous for high-dimensional medical datasets, where multiple clinical features may be correlated. By applying Lasso, we aim to address two critical challenges in cardiovascular disease prediction: identifying the most relevant predictors from large and complex datasets and reducing model over-fitting, which is common when working with a large number of co-variates. Our results demonstrated that the Lasso model significantly improves prediction accuracy when compared to traditional logistic regression and other machine learning models. Lasso regression has the potential to revolutionize cardiovascular disease diagnosis by providing a data-driven, efficient, and interpretable solution that bridges complex medical datasets with practical clinical decision-making.
