While machine learning (ML) offers promising tools for predictive diagnostics, many existing studies rely on single-algorithm approaches or less-than-robust validation methods, thereby limiting the generalizability and realworld applicability of their findings.This study aims to conduct a rigorous, head-tohead comparative evaluation of multiple machine learning algorithms for the multiclass classification of heart disease, with the goal of identifying the most effective and reliable model for this complex clinical task.We utilized a private dataset comprising 300 patient medical records, each described by 11 clinically relevant features. To ensure a robust and unbiased evaluation, a stratified 5-fold crossvalidation methodology was employed. Five widely-used classification algorithms were evaluated: Naïve Bayes (NB), Logistic Regression (LR), Random Forest (RF), a C5.0-analog Decision Tree (DT), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) . Model performance was assessed using standard metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.The comparative analysis revealed that the Naïve Bayes algorithm delivered superior performance, achieving the highest mean accuracy of 43.33%(±4.22%). It also led in other key metrics with a mean precision of 43.40%, recall of 43.64%, and an F1-score of 41.26%. Other algorithms, such as Logistic Regression (40.67% accuracy) and Random Forest (39.33% accuracy), demonstrated competitive performance but were ultimately surpassed by the Naïve Bayes model in this specific multi-class classification context.This research underscores the critical importance of employing robust validation techniques and comprehensive comparative analyses to identify optimal models for clinical applications. The Naïve Bayes algorithm emerges as a strong candidate for developing a reliable clinical decision support system for the early differentiation of various heart conditions, providing a foundation for future data-driven diagnostic tools.  \nThis is an open access article under the CC–BY-SA license.  \nArticle Info ABSTRACT  \n1. INTRODUCTION  \nCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) constitute a paramount global health crisis, consistently ranking as the foremost cause of mortality and morbidity across diverse populations [1, 2] . The spectrum of CVDs, encompassing conditions such as coronary artery disease (CAD), congestive heart failure, and cardiac arrhythmias, imposes a staggering burden on public health systems, national economies, and individual quality of life [4] . The insidious progression of many of these diseases often  \nmeans that symptoms only manifest at an advanced stage, where treatment options may be limited and less effective. Consequently, the paradigm of modern cardiology has increasingly shifted towards proactive prevention and early detection. Identifying individuals at high risk or diagnosing a condition in its nascent stages is fundamental to enabling timely, effective interventions that can halt disease progression, mitigate severe complications, and significantly reduce mortality rates [8, 9] .  \nThe digital transformation of healthcare has ushered in
