Clinical decision support system: Risk level prediction of heart disease using weighted fuzzy rules

Open access
Anooj, P.K.·2012·Journal of King Saud University - Computer and Information Sciences

Abstract

As people have interests in their health recently, development of medical domain application has been one of the most active research areas. One example of the medical domain application is the detection system for heart disease based on computer-aided diagnosis methods, where the data are obtained from some other sources and are evaluated based on computer-based applications. Earlier, the use of computer was to build a knowledge based clinical decision support system which uses knowledge from medical experts and transfers this knowledge into computer algorithms manually. This process is time consuming and really depends on medical experts’ opinions which may be subjective. To handle this problem, machine learning techniques have been developed to gain knowledge automatically from examples or raw data. Here, a weighted fuzzy rule-based clinical decision support system (CDSS) is presented for the diagnosis of heart disease, automatically obtaining knowledge from the patient’s clinical data. The proposed clinical decision support system for the risk prediction of heart patients consists of two phases: (1) automated approach for the generation of weighted fuzzy rules and (2) developing a fuzzy rule-based decision support system. In the first phase, we have used the mining technique, attribute selection and attribute weightage method to obtain the weighted fuzzy rules. Then, the fuzzy system is constructed in accordance with the weighted fuzzy rules and chosen attributes. Finally, the experimentation is carried out on the proposed system using the datasets obtained from the UCI repository and the performance of the system is compared with the neural network-based system utilizing accuracy, sensitivity and specificity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
