Abstract

Background

Stroke is the leading worldwide cause of disability and death. Effective stroke prevention and management depend on early identification of stroke risk.

Methods

Eight machine learning algorithms are applied to predict stroke risk using a well-curated dataset with pertinent clinical information. This paper describes a thorough investigation of stroke prediction using various machine learning methods.

Results

The empirical evaluation yields encouraging results, with the logistic regression, support vector machine, and K-nearest neighbors models achieving an impressive accuracy of 95.04%, and the random forest and neural network models scoring even better, with accuracies of 95.10% and 95.16%, respectively. The neural network exhibits slightly superior performance, indicating its potential as a reliable model for stroke risk assessment.

Conclusions

The empirical evaluation underscores the ability of neural networks to discern intricate data relationships. These findings offer valuable insights for healthcare professionals and researchers, aiding in the development of improved stroke prevention strategies and timely interventions, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.
