The liver is the largest organ of the human body with more than 500 vital functions. In recent decades, a large number of liver patients have been reported with diseases such as cirrhosis, fibrosis, or other liver disorders. There is a need for effective, early, and accurate identification of individuals suffering from such disease so that the person may recover before the disease spreads and becomes fatal. For this, applications of machine learning are playing a significant role. Despite the advancements, existing systems remain inconsistent in performance due to limited feature selection and data imbalance. In this article, we reviewed 58 articles extracted from 5 different electronic repositories published from January 2015 to 2023. After a systematic and protocol‐based review, we answered 6 research questions about machine learning algorithms. The identification of effective feature selection techniques, data imbalance management techniques, accurate machine learning algorithms, a list of available data sets with their URLs and characteristics, and feature importance based on usage has been identified for diagnosing liver disease. The reason to select this research question is, in any machine learning framework, the role of dimensionality reduction, data imbalance management, machine learning algorithm with its accuracy, and data itself is very significant. Based on the conducted review, a framework, machine learning‐based liver disease diagnosis (MaLLiDD), has been proposed and validated using three datasets. The proposed framework classified liver disorders with 99.56%, 76.56%, and 76.11% accuracy. In conclusion, this article addressed six research questions by identifying effective feature selection techniques, data imbalance management techniques, algorithms, datasets, and feature importance based on usage. It also demonstrated a high accuracy with the framework for early diagnosis, marking a significant advancement.

Aims: The objective of this research is to develop an effective cardiovascular disease prediction framework using machine learning techniques and to achieve high accuracy for the prediction of cardiovascular disease. Methods: In this paper, we have utilized machine learning algorithms to predict cardiovascular disease on the basis of symptoms such as chest pain, age and blood pressure. This study incorporated five distinct datasets: Heart UCI, Stroke, Heart Statlog, Framingham and Coronary Heart dataset obtained from online sources. For the implementation of the framework, RapidMiner tool was used. The three-step approach includes pre-processing of the dataset, applying feature selection method on pre-processed dataset and then applying classification methods for prediction of results. We addressed missing values by replacing them with mean, and class imbalance was handled using sample bootstrapping. Various machine learning classifiers were applied out of which random forest with AdaBoost dataset using 10-fold cross-validation provided the high accuracy. Results: The proposed model provides the highest accuracy of 99.48% on Heart Statlog, 93.90% on Heart UCI, 96.25% on Stroke dataset, 86% on Framingham dataset and 78.36% on Coronary heart disease dataset, respectively. Conclusions: In conclusion, the results of the study have shown remarkable potential of the proposed framework. By handling imbalance and missing values, a significantly accurate framework has been established that could effectively contribute to the prediction of cardiovascular disease at early stages.

Lung cancer is a deadly disease. According to a report of 2024, it is the primary reason for 1.82 million deaths. Given the high disease burden, early detection of lung cancer is crucial for improving survival rates and implementing effective strategies. This paper is aimed at conducting a systematic literature review and developing a highly accurate framework for predicting lung cancer effectively. Tollgate methodology has been used for systematic literature review, and quality assessment criteria were applied to select published articles relevant to the research questions. The paper investigates the effectiveness of machine learning in identifying patterns relevant to lung cancer prediction (Q1), examines the pros and cons of current predictive systems (Q2), compares the use of artificial intelligence in lung cancer prediction with traditional methods (Q3), and identifies key features that distinguish lung cancer from patient symptoms (Q4). Machine learning techniques were employed for the proposed framework. Two publicly available, distinct datasets containing clinical features were obtained. Then, the SelectKBest method was used for feature selection, and SMOTE was used to handle class imbalance. Our proposed framework includes a voting ensemble with random forest, support vector machine, and logistic regression with cross‐validation. The results indicate an accuracy of 99% and 92.5% for the first and second datasets, respectively. This study′s systematic literature review, based on four research questions and a machine learning model, exhibits high accuracy in predicting lung cancer.

Breast cancer is the most commonly rising problem among women. It is a type of cancer, and there are different causes of breast cancer and they can be predicted by having knowledge of the symptoms of breast cancer. Breast cancer can be caused if anyone from a family has suffered with this problem in the past. It is caused due to hormonal imbalance among women. There are different treatments for it. Many women are affected by this problem. In 2024, a Bollywood actress was also found to be the victim of breast cancer and she is still suffering from the disease. Breast cancer can be treated by applying different therapies and surgeries, etc. In the last stage of breast cancer, it spreads to other parts of the body, showing symptoms of weight loss, fatigue etc.

One of the most common problems in modern urban environments is traffic congestion, which leads to unreliable bus arrival times and passenger delays. In this study, we apply various machine learning models to predict traffic density with the aim of improving the accuracy of bus arrival time estimations. A large dataset comprising over 100,000 instances containing attributes such as date and time, maximum, minimum, and average speed, longitude, latitude, and geohash is utilized to classify traffic density as either “1 (High)” or “0 (Low).” We implement and compare five machine learning models: Logistic Regression, Gradient Boosting, Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN), and Naïve Bayes. The results demonstrate the potential of machine learning in reducing unnecessary delays and enhancing the accuracy of bus arrival predictions. This research contributes to improving the efficiency of public transportation systems in the future.
