Mammography Classification by an Association Rule-Based Classifier

Full Text: mdmkdd02.pdf PDF

This paper proposes a new classification method based on association rule mining. This association rule-based classifier is experimented on a real dataset; a database of medical images. The system we propose consists of: a preprocessing phase, a phase for mining the resulted transactional database, and a final phase to organize the resulted association rules in a classification model. The experimental results show that the method performs well reaching over 80% in accuracy. Moreover, this paper illustrates, by comparison to other published research, how important the data cleaning phase is in building an accurate data mining architecture for image classification.
