 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We feel much grateful to wave our salutation to our institution. We wish to express our
gratitude to our Esteemed Chancellor Dr. K. VEERAMANI, M.A., B.L., the paramount of
our institution for this patronage to do the project as a successful one.

We wish to express our heartfelt gratitude to our Honorable Vice-Chancellor

Dr. S . Velusami, B.E., M.E., Ph.D. Periyar Maniammai Institute of Science & Technology
for providing us the facilities and excellent infrastructure that enabled us to complete the
project successfully.

I would like to express my humble and sincere thanks to Dr.S.A.Dhanaraj, Registrar,

Periyar Maniammai Institute of Science & Technology for his support and guidance for
complete the project successfully.

It is my pleasure to extend my gratitude to Dr. P.K.Srividhya, Dean Academics, Periyar

Maniammai Institute of Science & Technology for her constant support and encouragement
to do the project as a successful one.

We express our sincere thanks to our Dean, Faculty of Computing Sciences and Engineering
Dr.J.Jeyachidra, MCA, Ph.D., without her extensive support, valuable advice and
suggestions, this project would not have reached a state of fruition.

We wish to acknowledge our credits and deep sense of gratitude to our

Head of the Department, Computer Science and Engineering,
Dr. A.E. NARAYANAN, B.E., M.Tech., Ph.D., whose support was incomparable and his
guidance made this project a successful one.

With a deep feeling of indebtedness, we extend our heartfelt gratitude and profound thanks to
our Project Co-ordinator Mr. K.M. Arivuchelvan B.E., M.E.,(Ph.D.), Assistant Professor
(SS), Computer Science and Engineering and my esteemed guide
Ms. R Poonguzhali, B.E, M.E, Assistant Professor (SS), Computer Science and
Engineering, for their valuable guidance, spontaneous help and assistance in providing the
continuous encouragement for the successful completion of the project.

We will never fail to acknowledge the help and encouragement that we received from our
parents and support from friends in the preparation of our project work. We are very thankful
to all who have helped us.

 ABSTRACT
A cardiovascular disease is one of the most threatening diseases today. It consists of
coronary artery diseases (CAD) like angina and myocardial infarction (heart attack), stroke,
hypertensive heart disease etc. To predict these diseases accurately and more effectively,
Machine learning algorithms are used. The algorithms used for prediction are Support
Vector Machine (SVM), Naïve Bayes, Decision tree, K-Nearest Neighbor, Neural
Networks. Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm is best among other algorithms and its
accuracy is not below 50% in any testing and training dataset. This algorithm has low
generalization error and it is also computationally inexpensive. In this system, the attributes
of dataset is been reduced to increase the accuracy of prediction. This selected attributes are
more significant to predict the disease.

Keywords – Cardiovascular disease, Machine Learning, Support Vector Machine.
