Title
Meningitis data mining by cooperatively using GDT-RS and RSBR
Abstract
This paper describes an application of two rough sets based systems, namely GDT-RS and RSBR respectively, for mining if-then rules in a meningitis dataset. GDT-RS (Generalized Distribution Table and Rough Set) is a soft hybrid induction system, and RSBR (Rough Sets with Boolean Reasoning) is used for discretization of real valued attributes as a preprocessing step realized before the GDT-RS starts.We argue that discretization of continuous valued attributes is an important pre-processing step in the rule discovery process. We illustrate the quality of rules discovered by GDT-RS is strongly affected by the result of discretization.
