    Accurate forecasting of guava harvest is essential for efficient resource allocation, market planning, and mitigating post-harvest losses. In Bangladesh, the guava industry faces challenges in predicting harvest yields due to the complex interaction of various environmental factors. This study proposes a novel approach to enhance guava harvest forecasting in Bangladesh through the application of supervised ML models. The research leverages historical guava production data and corresponding meteorological variables, including temperature, humidity, precipitation, and solar radiation. These variables are used as input features for training and testing several supervised ML models, such as linear regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines, and artificial neural networks. A comprehensive dataset comprising guava production records and meteorological data from multiple regions in Bangladesh is collected and preprocessed. Feature engineering techniques are employed to extract relevant information from the data and optimize model performance. The dataset is then divided into training and testing sets for model development and evaluation. Performance metrics such as MAE, RMSE, MSE are used to assess the accuracy and reliability of the machine learning models. Where the highest accuracy 84.72% is achieved by DTR. And the lowest accuracy is achieved by LinR accuracy of 43.07%. The models' forecasting capabilities are compared, and the most effective model is identified. The results demonstrate that the supervised machine learning models exhibit promising performance in guava harvest forecasting, outperforming traditional statistical methods. The selected model achieves high accuracy and provides valuable insights into the influence of meteorological variables on guava production. The findings of this study have significant implications for the guava industry in Bangladesh, helping to enhance productivity, reduce wastage, and promote sustainable agricultural practices. Moreover, the methodology presented are extended to other regions and crops, facilitating improved harvest forecasting in diverse agricultural contexts.

    Heart disease is one of the main causes of death worldwide and the most dangerous ailment. Early identification of cardiovascular disease will reduce mortality. The medical establishment has struggled in recent years to accurately anticipate cardiac disease. According to recent data, one person dies every minute from heart disease. Data science is needed to comprehend the vast volumes of new healthcare data. KNN, LR, AdaBoost, XGB, RF, GB, SVM, and DT machine-learning algorithms are used to forecast cardiac disease. Using these algorithms, we could analyze a person's heart disease risk based on dataset attributes. This study used two types of data. The first heart disease dataset had 918 patient records, 11 attributes, and one target. This dataset combines five well-known cardiac datasets. The second dataset on cardiovascular disease included 70000 patient records, 11 characteristics, and a single goal. This research offers a comparison study by investigating the efficacy of numerous machine learning methods. For our first and second datasets, Gradient Boost (GB) was the most accurate, with 91.80% and 74.50%, respectively. Considering the results of the trial, the Gradient Boost (GB) algorithm has the highest level of accuracy, which is 91.80%, compared to other models and studies being done at the time.
