Contrast Set Mining for Distinguishing Between Similar Diseases
نویسندگان
چکیده
The task addressed and the method proposed in this paper aim at improved understanding of differences between similar diseases. In particular we address the problem of distinguishing between thrombolic brain stroke and embolic brain stroke as an application of our approach of contrast set mining through subgroup discovery. We describe methodological lessons learned in the analysis of brain ischaemia data and a practical implementation of the approach within an open source data

Supporting Factors to Improve the Explanatory Potential of Contrast Set Mining: Analyzing Brain Ischaemia Data
The goal of exploratory pattern mining is to find patterns that exhibit yet unknown relationships in data and to provide insightful representations of detected relationships. This paper explores contrast set mining and an approach to improving its explanatory potential by using the so called supporting factors that provide additional descriptions of the detected patterns. The proposed methodolo...
متن کاملCSM-SD: Methodology for contrast set mining through subgroup discovery
This paper addresses a data analysis task, known as contrast set mining, whose goal is to find differences between contrasting groups. As a methodological novelty, it is shown that this task can be effectively solved by transforming it to a more common and well-understood subgroup discovery task. The transformation is studied in two learning settings, a one-versus-all and a pairwise contrast se...
متن کاملLearning Statistically Significant Contrast Sets
Contrast set learning is important to discover control variables that can distinguish different groups in a dataset. Association rule mining has an inherent connection to the contrast set learning problem and has also been used to address it. All of the association rule based contrast set learning techniques use support-confidence based methods and inherit their limitations. In recent years sta...
متن کاملEfficient Mining of Minimal Distinguishing Subgraph Patterns from Graph Databases
Distinguishing patterns represent strong distinguishing knowledge and are very useful for constructing powerful, accurate and robust classifiers. The distinguishing graph patterns(DGPs) are able to capture structure differences between any two categories of graph datasets. Whereas, few previous studies worked on the discovery of DGPs. In this paper, as the first, we study the problem of mining ...
متن کاملA Comparative Study between a Pseudo-Forward Equation (PFE) and Intelligence Methods for the Characterization of the North Sea Reservoir
This paper presents a comparative study between three versions of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) algorithms and a pseudo-forward equation (PFE) to characterize the North Sea reservoir (F3 block) based on seismic data. According to the statistical studies, four attributes (energy, envelope, spectral decomposition and similarity) are known to be useful as fundamental attributes in ...
