Abstract: 
Diagnosing and predicting the outcome of cardiovascular disease are essential tasks in medicine that help ensure patients receive accurate classification and treatment from cardiologists. The use of machine learning in the healthcare sector has grown due to its ability to identify patterns in data. By applying machine learning techniques to classify the presence of cardiovascular diseases, it's possible to decrease the rate of misdiagnosis. This study aims to create a model capable of accurately forecasting cardiovascular diseases to minimize the deaths associated with these conditions. In this paper, two types of SVM model such as linear SVM and polynomial SVM is used. Accuracy, precision, recall and F1 score has been evaluated for comparing linear SVM and polynomial SVM. Polynomial SVM provides better accuracy than linear SVM.
