- Abstract
Prediction of heart disease in elderly populations represents a significant challenge in healthcare. This study develops a logistic regression model to predict heart disease in patients aged 65 and older using a dataset of 273 samples. Features include cholesterol (binned into low and high), smoking status, exercise-induced angina, and chest pain type. The model achieves a cross-validation accuracy of 0.76 ± 0.07, a test set accuracy of 0.76, and an ROC-AUC of 0.83. Statistical analysis reveals high cholesterol as the only significant predictor (p < 0.001). Comparison with prior research highlights dataset-specific differences, suggesting future exploration with larger datasets.
