“…Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a chronic, progressive condition underscored by the heart's inability to supply enough perfusion to target tissues and organs at the physiological filling pressures to meet their metabolic demands [1]. CHF has reached epidemic proportions in the population, as its incidence is increasing by 2% annually.…”

Chronic heart failure (CHF) affects over 26 million of people worldwide, and its incidence is increasing by 2% annually. Despite the significant burden that CHF poses and despite the ubiquity of sensors in our lives, methods for automatically detecting CHF are surprisingly scarce, even in the research community. We present a method for CHF detection based on heart sounds. The method combines classic Machine-Learning (ML) and end-to-end Deep Learning (DL). The classic ML learns from expert features, and the DL learns from a spectro-temporal representation of the signal. The method was evaluated on recordings from 947 subjects from six publicly available datasets and one CHF dataset that was collected for this study. Using the same evaluation method as a recent PhysoNet challenge, the proposed method achieved a score of 89.3, which is 9.1 higher than the challenge's baseline method. The method's aggregated accuracy is 92.9% (error of 7.1%); while the experimental results are not directly comparable, this error rate is relatively close to the percentage of recordings labeled as ''unknown'' by experts (9.7%). Finally, we identified 15 expert features that are useful for building ML models to differentiate between CHF phases (i.e., in the decompensated phase during hospitalization and in the recompensated phase) with an accuracy of 93.2%. The proposed method shows promising results both for the distinction of recordings between healthy subjects and patients and for the detection of different CHF phases. This may lead to the easier identification of new CHF patients and the development of home-based CHF monitors for avoiding hospitalizations.

In the current era, Heart Failure (HF) is one of the common diseases that can lead to dangerous situation. Every year almost 26 million of patients are affecting with this kind of disease. From the heart consultant and surgeon's point of view, it is complex to predict the heart failure on right time. Fortunately, classification and predicting models are there, which can aid the medical field and can illustrates how to use the medical data in an efficient way. This paper aims to improve the HF prediction accuracy using UCI heart disease dataset. For this, multiple machine learning approaches used to understand the data and predict the HF chances in a medical database. Furthermore, the results and comparative study showed that, the current work improved the previous accuracy score in predicting heart disease. The integration of the machine learning model presented in this study with medical information systems would be useful to predict the HF or any other disease using the live data collected from patients.
