Why is it important?
Cardiovascular diseases, particularly heart attacks, are a leading cause of death globally, claiming around 18 million lives every year. Early detection and preventive measures are crucial, as nearly 80% of these deaths can be prevented. However, traditional detection methods can be complex, time-consuming, and prone to human error, especially in regions with limited medical resources. This research addresses these challenges by leveraging the power of machine learning and transformers to provide a more accurate, accessible, and personalized approach to early heart attack prediction.
Perspectives
By enabling remote access to predictive analysis, the proposed system can benefit medical practitioners in harder-to-reach areas with limited resources, improving the availability of early heart attack detection services. Overall, this research paper showcases a comprehensive and innovative approach to addressing the pressing challenge of early heart attack prediction, with the ultimate goal of saving lives and improving public health outcomes.
