Abstract

Heart disease is one of the deadliest diseases in modern society. Identifying heart disease at an early stage can ease the stress of treatment and prevent severe health damage. In this paper, a set of data initially gathered from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System is processed and selected to mainly focus on basic health information related to heart disease. Random forest and logit regression are used to better comprehend the correlation between heart disease and selected variables and to establish pre-diagnose models. Although both models have acceptable identification ability, the logit regression model can better explain the numerical relationship between variable values and the probability of having a heart disease. Furthermore, through the ROC curve, it is possible to choose appropriate classification thresholds to adjust the prediction accuracy of heart disease carriers and fit different needs. The constructed models can help to preliminarily screen possible heart disease carriers through information that can be acquired by only a short inquiry. Therefore, proper health suggestions and appropriate examinations could be provided to possible heart disease patients.
