Eight different ML models were trained and tested using a nested cross-validation procedure to classify LVFP as normal or elevated. The training included a search and selection of the most useful parameters. Performance was assessed from the test sets not seen during training. The eight ML models could classify all patients regardless of missing parameter values with accuracy ranging from 82% to 86%. The 2016 ASE\/EACVI guidelines algorithm left 13% unclassified due to missing values and had an accuracy of 81% in the remaining patients. On average, the eight ML models selected 13 parameters, and left atrial strain was included in three of these. The five highest ranked parameters by the ML models were mitral E\/left atrial reservoir strain, log(NT-proBNP), tricuspid regurgitation velocity, septal E\/e\u2019, and E\/A.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ML can improve classification of LVFP, particularly with a higher feasibility.
