Background: Early speculation of cardiovascular disease can help determine the lifestyle change options of high-risk patients, thereby reducing difficulties. We propose a coronary heart disease data set analysis technique to predict people’s risk of danger based on people’s clinically determined history. The methods introduced may be integrated into multiple uses, such for developing decision support system, developing a risk management network, and help for experts and clinical staff. Methods: We employed the Framingham Heart study dataset, which is publicly available Kaggle, to train several machine learning classifiers such as logistic regression (LR), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), Naïve Bayes (NB), decision tree (DT), random forest (RF) and gradient boosting classifier (GBC) for disease prediction. The p-value method has been used for feature elimination, and the selected features have been incorporated for further prediction. Various thresholds are used with different classifiers to make predictions. In order to estimating the precision of the classifiers, ROC curve, confusion matrix and AUC value are considered for model verification. The performance of the six classifiers is used for comparison to predict chronic heart disease (CHD). Results: After applying the p-value backward elimination statistical method on the 10-year CHD data set, 6 significant features were selected from 14 features with p <0.5. In the performance of machine learning classifiers, GBC has the highest accuracy score, which is 87.61%. Conclusions: Statistical methods, such as the combination of p-value backward elimination method and machine learning classifiers, thereby improving the accuracy of the classifier and shortening the running time of the machine.

In current day information transmitted from one place to another by using network communication technology. Due to such transmission of information, networking system required a high security environment. The main strategy to secure this environment is to correctly identify the packet and detect if the packet contains a malicious and any illegal activity happened in network environments. To accomplish this, we use intrusion detection system (IDS). Intrusion detection is a security technology that design detects and automatically alert or notify to a responsible person. However, creating an efficient Intrusion Detection System face a number of challenges. These challenges are false detection and the data contain high number of features. Currently many researchers use machine learning techniques to overcome the limitation of intrusion detection and increase the efficiency of intrusion detection for correctly identify the packet either the packet is normal or malicious. Many machine-learning techniques use in intrusion detection. However, the question is which machine learning classifiers has been potentially to address intrusion detection issue in network security environment. Choosing the appropriate machine learning techniques required to improve the accuracy of intrusion detection system. In this work, three machine learning classifiers are analyzed. Support vector Machine, Naïve Bayes Classifier and K-Nearest Neighbor classifiers. These algorithms tested using NSL KDD dataset by using the combination of Chi square and Extra Tree feature selection method and Python used to implement, analyze and evaluate the classifiers. Experimental result show that K-Nearest Neighbor classifiers outperform the method in categorizing the packet either is normal or malicious.
