Abstract

An unexpected limitation of blood supply to the brain and heart causes the majority of strokes. Stroke severity can be reduced by being aware of the many stroke warning signs in advance. A stroke may result if the flow of blood to a portion of the brain stops suddenly. In this research, we present a strategy for predicting the early start of stroke disease by using Logistic Regression (LR) algorithms. To improve the performance of the model, preprocessing techniques including SMOTE, feature selection and outlier handling were applied to the dataset. This method helped in achieving a balance of class distribution, identifying and removing unimportant features and handling outliers. with the existence of increased blood pressure, body mass, heart conditions, average blood glucose levels, smoking status, prior stroke, and age. Impairment occurs as the brain's neurons gradually die, depending on which area of the brain is affected by the reduced blood supply. Early diagnosis of symptoms can be extremely helpful in predicting stroke and supporting a healthy lifestyle. Furthermore, we performed an experiment using logistic regression (LR) and compared it to a number of other studies that used the same machine learning model, which is logistic regression (LR), and the same dataset. The results showed that our method successfully achieved the highest F1 score and area under curve (AUC) score, which can be a successful tool for stroke disease prediction with an accuracy of 86% compared to the other five studies in the same field. The predictive model for stroke has prospective applications, and as a result, it is still significant for academics and practitioners in the fields of medicine and health sciences.
