25 min read

INTRODUCTION

In this blog,we will analyse 'Heart' data to predict heart attack risk using logistic regression.

Importing Necessary Packages:

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from collections import Counter
import pandas_profiling as pp
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler

Reading the data:

data=pd.read_csv('heart (2).csv')
data.head()

Heartattack-Prediction

Let us understand the Heart dataset. The dataset has 14 columns with the following information:

Age: Age of the individual.
Sex: Gender (1 = male, 0 = female).
Chest-pain type: Type of chest pain (1 = typical angina, 2 = atypical, 3 = non-anginal, 4 = asymptotic).
Resting BP: Resting blood pressure in mmHg.
Serum Cholesterol: Serum cholesterol in mg/dl.
Fasting Blood Sugar: Fasting blood sugar > 120mg/dl coded as 1, else 0.
Resting ECG: Electrocardiographic results (0 = normal, 1 = ST-T wave abnormality, 2 = left ventricular hypertrophy).
Max Heart Rate: Maximum heart rate achieved.
Exercise Induced Angina: 1 = yes, 0 = no.
ST Depression: Depression induced by exercise relative to rest.
Peak Exercise ST Segment: 1 = upsloping, 2 = flat, 3 = downsloping.
Vessels Colored: Number of major vessels (0–3) colored by fluoroscopy.
Thal: Thalassemia (3 = normal, 6 = fixed defect, 7 = reversible defect).
Diagnosis: Presence (1, 2, 3, 4) or absence (0) of heart disease.

Exploratory Data Analysis: EDA for data is done in simple methods by one of the pandas_profiling library.

!pip install pandas_profiling
data1=pp.ProfileReport(data)
print(data1)

On generating the pandas profiling for exploratory data analysis it is clear that there are duplicate rows present in the dataset.so we are removing the duplicates.

data2=data.drop_duplicates()
data2_pp=pp.ProfileReport(data2)
print(data2_pp)

#Verifying dataset balance:-
sns.countplot(x='target',data=data)   
#visualizing the distribution of hearattack possibility.
plt.show()

The dataset is fairly balanced. Heartattack-Prediction

MODEL BUILDING:

#Splitting the data into X(Features) and Y(Target):-0(No Heart Attack) and 1(Heart Attack).
X=data2.drop('target',axis=1)
Y=data2['target']
#Splitting the data into train and test in the ratio(80:20) for evaluating the model on test data.
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, Y, test_size=0.20, random_state = 0)
#Scaling of the data.
scaler = StandardScaler()
X_train = scaler.fit_transform(X_train)
X_test = scaler.transform(X_test)
#Checking the shape of train and test data.
print(X_train.shape)
print(X_test.shape)
print(y_train.shape)
print(y_test.shape)

Creating the logistic regression model:

from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
#Creating an instance/object of logistic regression class.
lr=LogisticRegression()   
#Training the logistic regression model.
lr.fit(X_train,y_train)

Importing the evaluation metrics:

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix,accuracy_score,roc_curve,classification_report
print(confusion_matrix(y_test,y_pred))
print(accuracy_score(y_test,y_pred))
print(classification_report(y_test,y_pred))

Heartattack-Prediction

The accuracy of the model is appx.83% which is a good model. In logistic regression model,we said that we get output in terms of probability:-(predict_proba)

#Estimating target variable probability and determining its class at a 0.5 cutoff."
pred_proba=lr.predict_proba(X_test)
print(pred_proba)
#The initial column denotes the probability of Target as either 0 (no heart attack) or 1 (heart attack). The class assignment depends on which probability exceeds 0.5."

ROC_AUC(Receiver Operating Characteristics and Area Under Curve):

from sklearn.metrics import roc_auc_score   
from sklearn.metrics import roc_curve
logit_roc_auc=roc_auc_score(y_test,y_pred)   #It's the area under the ROC Curve
print(logit_roc_auc)
0.8305555555555556

#For a good model,a minimum score of 0.8 is required. A higher score signifies the model's better ability to distinguish between positive and negative classes."

Plotting the ROC_AUC_CURVE:

fpr,tpr,thresholds=roc_curve(y_test,lr.predict_proba(X_test)[:,1])
plt.plot(fpr,tpr,label='Area under curve: %0.2f' %logit_roc_auc)
plt.plot([0,1],[0,1],'r--')
plt.xlim([0.0,1.0])
plt.ylim([0.0,1.05])
plt.xlabel('False Positive Rate')
plt.ylabel('True Poistive Rate')
plt.title('Receiver Operating Characteristics')
plt.legend()
plt.show()
