Abstract

Cardiovascular risk prediction is a vital aspect of personalized health care. In this study, retinal vascular function is assessed in asymptomatic participants who are classified into risk groups based on Framingham Risk Score. Feature selection, oversampling and state-of-the-art classification methods are applied to provide a sound individual risk prediction based on Retinal Vessel Analysis (RVA) data obtained by non-invasive methods. The results indicate that the RVA based cardiovascular risk prediction models are competitive with well established Framingham and Qrisk based models.
