Abstract: Heart disease is measured as a common disease all over the world. The ultimate target is to provide heart disease diagnosis with improved feature selection with Glow worm swarm optimization algorithm. The anticipated model comprises of optimization approach for feature selection and classifier for predicting heart disease. This system framework comprises of three stages: 1) data processing, 2) feature selection using IGWSO approach and classification with conventional machine learning classifiers. Here, C4.5 classifier is considered for performing the function. The benchmark dataset that has been attained from UCI database was cast off for performing computation. Maximal classification accuracy has been achieved based on cross validation strategy. Outcomes depicts that performance of anticipated model is superior in contrary to other models. Simulation has been done with MATLAB environment. Metrics like accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F-measure and recall has been evaluated.
