    Heart failure (HF) affects 64 million people globally, necessitating early risk stratification to improve patient outcomes.

  • 2

    The study benchmarks 10 machine learning algorithms for HF risk prediction, revealing Logistic Regression as the most effective model.

  • 3

    A dual-XAI framework combining SHAP and LIME was established, enhancing interpretability and addressing biases in single-method approaches.

  • 4

    Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) was identified as the most significant predictor of heart failure risk in the analysis.

    The findings support the clinical utility of machine learning models for identifying high-risk HF patients, pending further validation.
