Objective: To develop an optimized model for prediction of heart disease. Methods/findings: The model has been built applying Customized Ensemble Voting Classifier where the weights of each base classifier have been calculated considering accuracy, specificity and sensitivity. For feature selection Chi Square method has been applied. The performance of the model has been enhanced using Firefly algorithm. The proposed model has achieved 85.52% accuracy. Novelty: The novelty of our research paper on heart disease prediction lies in the integration of machine learning algorithms to develop an accurate predictive model. Multiple classifiers have grouped together through a customized ensemble voting classifier. For assigning the weight not only accuracy is considered but also specificity and sensitivity scores have also been considered and then performance has been optimized with Firefly algorithm which makes the method comprehensive and reliable for predicting heart disease risk and could ultimately lead to more effective prevention and treatment strategies.
