This study used data mining algorithms, specifically Support Vector Machine and Multilayer Perceptron Ensemble Neural Network, to classify a dataset of malignant mesothelioma patients.
The study applied data mining techniques, Support Vector Machine and Multilayer Perceptron Ensemble Neural Network, to a dataset containing both healthy individuals and malignant mesothelioma patients to classify the illness. The research followed a quantitative approach using 10-fold cross-validation over 5 runs to evaluate classifier performance. The implications are that these computational methods can serve as a learning-based decision support system to aid in medical diagnosis.
