The Healthcare industry is generally "information rich", but unfortunately not all the data are mined which is required for discovering hidden patterns & effective decision making. Advanced data mining techniques are used to discover knowledge in database and for medical research, particularly in Heart disease prediction. This paper has analysed prediction systems for Heart disease using more number of input attributes. The system uses medical terms such as sex, blood pressure, cholesterol like 13 attributes to predict the likelihood of patient getting a Heart disease. Until now, 13 attributes are used for prediction. This research paper added two more attributes i.e. obesity and smoking. The data mining classification techniques, namely Decision Trees, Naive Bayes, and Neural Networks are analyzed on Heart disease database. The performance of these techniques is compared, based on accuracy. As per our results accuracy of Neural Networks, Decision Trees, and Naive Bayes are 100%, 99.62%, and 90.74% respectively. Our analysis shows that out of these three classification models Neural Networks predicts Heart disease with highest accuracy.
In Reference REF techniques such as Decision Trees, Naive Bayes and MLP of ANNs is used to predict heart disease in people.
