Journal ArticleDOI
Association rule mining to detect factors which contribute to heart disease in males and females
TL;DR: It is seen that factors such as chest pain being asymptomatic and the presence of exercise-induced angina indicate the likely existence of heart disease for both men and women, and resting ECG status is a key distinct factor for heart disease prediction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational intelligence for heart disease diagnosis: A medical knowledge driven approach
TL;DR: The experimental results demonstrate that the use of MFS noticeably improved the performance, especially in terms of accuracy, for most of the classifiers considered and for majority of the datasets (generated by converting the Cleveland dataset for binary classification).
Journal ArticleDOI
Solving the traveling salesman problem using cooperative genetic ant systems
TL;DR: A new hybrid algorithm, cooperative genetic ant system (CGAS) is proposed to deal with the travelling salesman problem and shows that CGAS has superior performance over other GA and ACO algorithms for solving TSPs in terms of capability and consistency of achieving the global optimal solution, and quality of average optimal solutions, particularly for small T SPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determining Pipe Groupings for Water Distribution Networks
TL;DR: In this paper, a methodology is developed to quantify impacts introduced by system simplification and identify the best number of pipe groupings for a network, where the system is simplified by assuming sets of pipes have the same roughness coefficient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Significant Cancer Prevention Factor Extraction: An Association Rule Discovery Approach
TL;DR: Experimental results illustrate that Apriori is the most useful association rule-mining algorithm to be used in the discovery of prevention factors.
