The objective of the work is to predict heart disease using computing techniques like an oppositional firefly with BAT and rule-based fuzzy logic (RBFL). The system would help the doctors to automate heart disease diagnosis and to enhance the medical care. In this paper, a hybrid OFBAT-RBFL heart disease diagnosis system is designed. Here, at first, the relevant features are selected from the dataset using locality preserving projection (LPP) algorithm which helps the diagnosis system to develop a classification model using the fuzzy logic system. After that, the rules for the fuzzy system are created from the sample data. Among the entire rules, the important and relevant group of rules are selected using OFBAT algorithm. Here, the opposition based learning (OBL) is hybrid to the firefly with BAT algorithm to improve the performance of the FAT algorithm while optimizing the rules of the fuzzy logic system. Next, the fuzzy system is designed with the help of designed fuzzy rules and membership functions so that classification can be carried out within the fuzzy system designed. At last, the experimentation is performed by means of publicly available UCI datasets, i.e., Cleveland, Hungarian and Switzerland datasets. The experimentation result proves that the RBFL prediction algorithm outperformed the existing approach by attaining the accuracy of 78%.
