Diagnosing the existence of heart disease is really tedious process, as it entails deep knowledge and opulent experience. As a whole, the forecast of heart disease lies upon the conventional method of analysing medical report such as ECG (The Electrocardiogram), MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), Blood Pressure, Stress tests by a Medicinal expert. Nowadays, a large volume of medical statistics is obtainable in medical industry and turns as a excessive source of forecasting valuable and concealed facts in almost all medical complications. Thus, these facts would really aid the doctors to create exact predictions. The innovative methods of Artificial Neural Network models have also been contributing themselves in yielding the main prediction accuracy over medical statistics. This paper targets to predict the presence of heart disease utilizing Back Propagation MLP (Multilayer Perceptron) of Artificial Neural Network. The proposed ANN design targeted to generate the three outputs Yes (Patient having heart disease), No (Patient not having heart disease), and Hesitant (Patient those who are in between yes and no category).
