• Abstract: Currently, many researchers and analysts are working toward medical diagnosis enhancement for various diseases. Heart disease is one of the common diseases that can be considered a significant cause of mortality worldwide. Early detection of heart disease significantly helps in reducing the risk of heart failure. Consequently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) conducts a health-related telephone survey yearly from over 400,000 participants. However, several concerns arise regarding the reliability of the data in predicting heart disease and whether all of the survey questions are strongly related. This study aims to utilize several machine learning techniques, such as support vector machines and logistic regression, to investigate the accuracy of the CDC's heart disease survey in the United States. Furthermore, we use various feature selection methods to identify the most relevant subset of questions that can be utilized to forecast heart conditions. To reach a robust conclusion, we perform stability analysis by randomly sampling the data 300 times. The experimental results show that the survey data can be useful up to 80% in terms of predicting heart disease, which significantly improves the diagnostic process before bloodwork and tests. In addition, the amount of time spent conducting the survey can be reduced by 77% while maintaining the same level of performance.

  Coronary Heart Disease affects millions of people worldwide and is a well-studied area of healthcare. There are many viable and accurate methods for the diagnosis and prediction of heart disease, but they have limiting points such as invasiveness, late detection, or cost. Supervised learning via machine learning algorithms presents a low-cost (computationally speaking), non-invasive solution that can be a precursor for early diagnosis.

We then introduce a new distributionally robust optimization objective over unmeasured variables (UV-DRO) to control the worst-case loss over possible test-time shifts.
