| Summary: | Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain the leading cause of mortality worldwide, emphasizing the urgent need for accurate and efficient predictive models. This study proposes a dual-output deep learning model based on a hybrid Convolutional Neural Network–Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) model, optimized using the Evolutionary Mating Algorithm (EMA). The model predicts both a continuous risk score and a binary diagnostic outcome, supporting both quantitative assessment and early clinical decision-making. EMA was applied for hyperparameter optimization, demonstrating improved convergence and generalization over conventional methods. Performance was benchmarked against CNN-LSTM models optimized using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Barnacle Mating Optimization (BMO). The EMA-based model achieved superior results, with a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.018, Mean Squared Error (MSE) of 0.0006, Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) of 0.024, and a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.98 for risk prediction. For the diagnostic task, the model attained 70 % accuracy and 80 % precision. These findings validate EMA’s effectiveness in tuning dual-output deep learning models and highlight its potential in enhancing cardiovascular risk stratification and early diagnosis in clinical settings. • Dual-output CNN-LSTM model optimized using EMA. • Continuous risk scores and binary diagnostic classification predictions. • EMA outperformed PSO and BMO in predictive accuracy and model robustness. |
