<![CDATA[Coronary artery disease, a prevalent type of cardiovascular disease, is a significant contributor to premature mortality globally. Employing the classification of coronary artery disease as an early detection measure can have a substantial impact on reducing death rates caused by this ailment. To investigate this, the Z-Alizadeh dataset, consisting of clinical data from patients afflicted with coronary artery disease, was utilized, encompassing a total of 303 data points that comprise 55 predictive attribute features and 1 target attribute feature. For the purpose of classification, the Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT) algorithm was chosen, and in addition, a metaheuristic algorithm called monarch butterfly optimization (MBO) was implemented to diminish the number of features. The objective of this study is to compare the performance of GBDT before and after the application of MBO for feature selection. The evaluation of the study's findings involved the utilization of a confusion matrix and the calculation of the area under the curve (AUC). The outcomes demonstrated that GBDT initially attained an accuracy rate of 87.46%, a precision of 83.85%, a recall of 70.37%, and an AUC of 82.09%. Subsequent to the implementation of MBO, the performance of GBDT improved to an accuracy of 90.26%, a precision of 86.82%, a recall of 80.79%, and an AUC of 87.33% with the selection of 31 features. This improvement in performance leads to the conclusion that MBO effectively addresses the feature selection issue within this particular context.]]>
