Abstract

These days, with the current situation we are experiencing worldwide due to the pandemic, it is of utmost importance to know our state of health, speaking more specifically of our cardiovascular health. Soft computing can be used by medical experts as a powerful tool to help and facilitate providing a diagnosis of our state of health. The objective of this work is to create a modular neural network to obtain the risk diagnosis that a patient has in developing a cardiovascular event in a period of 10 years likewise, find the heart age. In order to provide this information, a series of risk factors will be given as input to each of the modules, such as age, gender, body mass index, systolic pressure, if the patient is diabetic, if the patient smokes, if he/she is under hypertension treatment. Each module is optimized with two bio-inspired algorithms to test its performance and thereby obtain the best results to provide an accurate diagnosis.
