Efficient Classification Rule Mining for Breast Cancer Detection
Breast cancer is the second largest cause of cancer deaths among women. Mainly, this disease is tumor related cause of death in women. Early detection of breast cancer may protect women from death. Various computational methods have been utilized to enhance the diagnoses procedures. In this paper, we have presented the genetic algorithm (GA) based association rule mining method which can be applied to detect breast cancer efficiently. In this work, we have represented each solution as chromosome and applied to genetic algorithm based rule mining. Association rules which imply classification rules are encoded with binary strings to represent chromosomes. Finally, optimal solutions are found out by develop GA-based approach utilizing a feedback linkage between feature selection and association rule.
