These indicators are useful for selecting best algorithms for classification/prediction tasks in data mining. Empirical studies on these performance indicators in data mining are few. Therefore, this study was designed to determine how data mining classification algorithm perform with increase in input data sizes. Three data mining classification algorithms—Decision Tree, Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) Neural Network and Naïve Bayes— were subjected to varying simulated data sizes. The time taken by the algorithms for trainings and accuracies of their classifications were analyzed for the different data sizes. Results show that Naïve Bayes takes least time to train data but with least accuracy as compared to MLP and Decision Tree algorithms.展开更多

Data mining offers excellent nonlinear modeling and self-organized learning, and it can play a vital role in the interpretation of well logging data of complex reservoirs. We used data mining to identify the lithologies in a complex reservoir. The reservoir lithologies served as the classification task target and were identified using feature extraction, feature selection, and modeling of data streams. We used independent component analysis to extract information from well curves. We then used the branch-and- bound algorithm to look for the optimal feature subsets and eliminate redundant information. Finally, we used the C5.0 decision-tree algorithm to set up disaggregated models of the well logging curves. The modeling and actual logging data were in good agreement, showing the usefulness of data mining methods in complex reservoirs.展开更多

The tie occurs when there are equal proportions of the target class outcome in the leaf node＇s records that leads to a situation where majority voting cannot be applied. To solve the above mentioned exception, we propose to base the prediction of the result on the naive Bayes （NB） estimate, k-nearest neighbour （k-NN） and association rule mining （ARM）. The other features used for splitting the parent nodes are also taken into consideration.展开更多

Methods: 170,246 outpatient data was extracted from the hospital management information system (HIS) during January 2016 to July 2016, 43,448 data was formed after the data cleaning. K-Means clustering algorithm was used to classify patients with chronic infectious diseases, and then C5.0 decision tree algorithm was used to predict the situation of patients with chronic infectious diseases. Results: Male patients accounted for 58.7%, patients living in Shanghai accounted for 85.6%. The average age of patients is 45.88 years old, the high incidence age is 25 to 65 years old. Patients was gathered into three categories: 1) Clusters 1—Important patients (4786 people, 11.72%, R = 2.89, F = 11.72, M = 84,302.95);2) Clustering 2—Major patients (23,103, 53.2%, R = 5.22, F = 3.45, M = 9146.39);3) Cluster 3—Potential patients (15,559 people, 35.8%, R = 19.77, F = 1.55, M = 1739.09). C5.0 decision tree algorithm was used to predict the treatment situation of patients with chronic infectious diseases, the final treatment time (weeks) is an important predictor, the accuracy rate is 99.94% verified by the confusion model. Conclusion: Medical institutions should strengthen the adherence education for patients with chronic infectious diseases, establish the chronic infectious diseases and customer relationship management database, take the initiative to help them improve treatment adherence. Chinese governments at all levels should speed up the construction of hospital information, establish the chronic infectious disease database, strengthen the blocking of mother-to-child transmission, to effectively curb chronic infectious diseases, reduce disease burden and mortality.展开更多

The prediction of trauma patients outcome was a difficult problem to investigate till present times. In this study, prediction models are built and their capabilities to accurately predict the mortality are assessed. The analysis includes a comparison of data mining techniques using classification, clustering and association algorithms. Data were collected by Hellenic Trauma and Emergency Surgery Society from 30 Greek hospitals. Dataset contains records of 8544 patients suffering from severe injuries collected from the year 2005 to 2006. Factors include patients' demographic elements and several other variables registered from the time and place of accident until the hospital treatment and final outcome. Using this analysis the obtained results are compared in terms of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value and the ROC curve depicts these methods performance.展开更多
