Abstract Heart disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide, responsible for millions of fatalities each year. Early diagnosis is crucial to reduce mortality and improve patient outcomes. Traditional machine learning models such as Gaussian Naive Bayes have shown limited effectiveness in capturing the complex and nonlinear patterns inherent in medical datasets. To address these limitations, this study proposes an optimized hybrid deep learning model that combines Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) networks for heart disease prediction. CNN layers are utilized for extracting spatial features from structured clinical data, while BiLSTM layers effectively capture temporal dependencies, enhancing the model's ability to learn complex relationships. The model is trained and evaluated on the widely used heart_statlog_cleveland_hungary_final.csv dataset, which includes multiple cardiovascular health indicators. Advanced preprocessing techniques and model optimizations such as batch normalization and dropout are employed to improve training efficiency and prevent overfitting. The proposed hybrid CNN-BiLSTM model achieved a classification accuracy of 93%, outperforming the baseline Gaussian Naive Bayes model by a significant margin. This study demonstrates that integrating spatial and sequential learning through hybrid deep learning architectures can offer robust and scalable solutions for early heart disease prediction in clinical applications.
