MMDT: Multi-Objective Memetic Rule Learning from Decision Tree

In this article, a Multi-Objective Memetic Algorithm (MA) for rule learning is proposed. Prediction accuracy and interpretation are two measures that conflict with each other. In this approach, we consider accuracy and interpretation of rules sets. Additionally, individual classifiers face other problems such as huge sizes, high dimensionality and imbalance classes’ distribution data sets. This...

Comparison of gestational diabetes prediction with artificial neural network and decision tree models

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common metabolic disorders in pregnancy, which is associated with serious complications. In the event of early diagnosis of this disease, some of the maternal and fetal complications can be prevented. The aim of this study was to early predict gestational diabetes mellitus by two statistical models including artificial neural ne...

A Heart Disease Prediction Model using Decision Tree

In this paper, we develop a heart disease prediction model that can assist medical professionals in predicting heart disease status based on the clinical data of patients. Firstly, we select 14 important clinical features, i.e., age, sex, chest pain type, trestbps, cholesterol, fasting blood sugar, resting ecg, max heart rate, exercise induced angina, old peak, slope, number of vessels colored,...

Provide a Predictive Model to Identify People with Diabetes Using the Decision Tree

Background: Today, in most hospitals in Iran, there is an extensive database of patient characteristics that includes a large amount of information related to medical, family and medical records. Finding a knowledge model of this information can help to predict the performance of the medical system and improve educational processes. Methods: Data mining techniques are analytical tools that are...
