Abstract

Standard patient parameters, tumor markers, and tumor diagnosis records are used for identifying prediction models for tumor markers as well as cancer diagnosis predictions. In this paper we present a hybrid clustering and classification approach that first identifies data clusters (using standard patient data and tumor markers) and then learns prediction models on the basis of these data clusters. The so formed clusters are analyzed and their homogeneity is calculated; the models learned on the basis of these clusters are tested and compared to each other with respect to classification accuracy and variable impacts.
