Improved sparse autoencoder based artificial neural network approach for prediction of heart disease

In this paper a two stage method is proposed to effectively predict heart disease. The first stage involves training an improved sparse autoencoder (SAE), an unsupervised neural network, to learn the best representation of the training data. The second stage involves using an artificial neural netwo...
