The performance of he proposed echnque s evaluaed usng accuracy, sensvy and specfcy. Keywords: orhogonal local preservng proecon; group search opmzer algorhm; Fuzzy Mn-Max neural nework; opmal classfer. 1. Inroducon Daa mnng s an essenal sep n he process of knowledge dscovery n daabases n whch nellgen mehods are appled n order o exrac paerns [1]. I s he process of analyzng daa from dfferen perspecves and summarzng no useful nformaon. The man goal of daa mnng s o dscover new paerns for he users and o nerpre he daa paerns o provde meanngful and useful nformaon for he users. I appled o fnd useful paerns o help n he mporan asks of medcal dagnoss and reamen [2]. The algorhms, when appropraely used, are capable of mprovng he qualy of predcon, dagnoss and dsease classfcaon [3]. Wh daa echnque such knowledge can exraced and accessed ransformng he daa base asks form sorng and rereval o learnng and exracng knowledge [4]. Classfcaon of medcal daa for accurae dagnoss s a growng feld of applcaon n daa mnng [5]. I s a process of fndng he class model accordng o her arbues. There are wo dfferen caegory of learnng process namely supervsed learnng and unsupervsed learnng. Decson ree s a common classfcaon algorhm and wdely used n many applcaons. Decson ree algorhm ncludes Classfcaon and Regresson Tree [6]. The classfy panel enables he user o apply classfcaon and regresson algorhms o he resulng daase, o esmae he accuracy of he resulng predcve model, and o vsualze erroneous predcons, or he model self [7]. An ensemble model s defned as a se of ndvdually raned classfer whose predcons are combned when classfyng a new daa. Ensemble combnes he oupu of several classfers produced by weak learner no a sngle compose classfcaon. I can be used o reduce he error of any weak learnng algorhm [8]. Classfcaon model could make predcaon of caegorcal label nclude dscree or unordered varables [9]. A daa se s mbalanced f he classfcaon caegores are no equally represened [4]. Classfcaon dvdes daa samples no arge classes. The classfcaon echnque predcs he arge class for each daa pons. Bnary and mullevel are he wo mehods of classfcaon. In bnary classfcaon he performance and qualy of classfcaon algorhms s usually evaluaed usng predcve accuracy [10].

2 2 hs s no suable when he nformaon s unequvocally mbalanced as dspares n he quany of ems beween he classes may promp serous weakenng of he groupng exacness [11]. Daa mnng and knowledge dscovery n daabases have been aracng sgnfcan amoun of research n felds lke ndusry medcal, commerce, scence whch s aracng he meda aenon of lae [12]. Afer, classfer was bul, hs model would be evaluaed accordng o he answers accuracy ha model wll gve hrough esng. Whereas, anoher daa, unlabeled examples ha are known es daa, provde he model [13]. Many successful applcaons ha whch are based on assocaon rule mnng algorhms are used o produce very large numbers of rules. In mos of he decson suppor sysems he accuracy of classfer s measured on he bass of all arbues [14]. Varous algorhms and echnques are used n he medcal daa mnng lke Classfcaon, Cluserng, Regresson, Arfcal Inellgence, Neural Neworks, Assocaon Rules, Decson Trees, Genec Algorhm, Neares Neghbor mehod [15]. 2. Relaed Work In hs secon, we have dscussed some recen papers abou medcal daa classfcaon. M. A. Jabbar e al [16] have proposed a mehod ha o dscover assocaon rules n medcal daa o predc hear dsease for Andhra Pradesh. Tha approach was expeced o help physcans o make accurae decson. Moraly daa from he regsrar general of Inda shows ha he coronary hear dsease (CHD) were a maor cause of deah n Inda. They deermne he precse cause of deah n rural areas of Andhra Pradesh have revealed ha CHD cause abou 30% deah n rural areas. Indu San e al [17] have proposed algorhm was evaluaed on wo manually annoaed sandard daabases such as CSE and MIT-BIH Arrhyhma daabase. Tha work ells abou dgal band-pass fler was used o reduce false deecon caused by nerference presen n ECG sgnal and furher graden of he sgnal was used as a feaure for QRSdeecon. They also found an addon he accuracy of KNN based classfer was largely dependen on he value of K and ype of dsance merc. The deecon raes of 99.89% and 99.81% were acheved for CSE and MIT-BIH daabases respecvely. Sna Khanmohammad and Mandana Rezaeahar [18] have proposed o choose a machne learnng classfcaon ha has been used for developng clncal decson suppor sysem. They Inernaonal Journal of Inellgen Engneerng and Sysems, Vol.9, No.3, 2016 presened en sample medcal daases. They sugges model SVM as he mos desrable classfcaon algorhm for developng CDSS. The research was no o denfy a classfcaon algorhm ha has been performng bes n all medcal daases. The relably of he model has been mproved usng more sample daases. R. Chra and V. Seenvasagam [19] have proposed a growng research on hear dsease predcng sysem, ha has been become mporan o caegores he research oucomes and provdes readers wh an overvew of he exsng hear dsease predcon echnques n each caegory. Neural Neworks were one of many daa mnng analycal ools ha have been ulzed o make predcons for medcal daa. R. Bhuvaneswar and K. Kalaselv [20] have proposed he use of Nave Baye s classfer n medcal applcaons. Qualy servce mples dagnosng paens correcly and admnserng reamens ha are effecve. Decson Suppor n Hear Dsease Predcon Sysem was also developed usng Nave Bayesan Classfcaon echnque. Naïve Bayes classfcaons have been used as a bes decson suppor sysem. P K. Anoo [21] have proposed a weghed fuzzy rule-based clncal decson suppor sysem (CDSS) was presened for he dagnoss of hear dsease, auomacally obanng knowledge from he paen s clncal daa. They conss wo phases namely: (1) Auomaed approach for he generaon of weghed fuzzy rules and (2) Developng a fuzzy rule-based decson suppor sysem. M. Akhl abbar e al [22] have proposed a combnes approach of KNN and genec algorhm have o mprove he classfcaon accuracy of hear dsease daa se. They used genec search as a goodness measure o prune redundan and rrelevan arbues, and o rank he arbues whch have been conrbue more owards classfcaon. Leas ranked arbues were removed, and classfcaon algorhm s bul based on evaluaed arbues. A. Sudha, e al [23] have proposed a prncple componen analyss algorhm was used for reducng he dmensons and ha have been deermnes he arbues nvolvng more owards he predcon of sroke dsease and predcs wheher he paen sufferng from sroke dsease or no. Tha algorhm deals abou sroke was a lfe hreaenng dsease ha has been ranked hrd leadng cause of deah n saes and n developng counres. The sroke was a leadng cause of serous, long erm dsably n US.

In addon o a sraghforward daa cleanng mehod, hey used an effcen way called neghborhood cleanng ha solved he problem and mproved her classfcaon accuraces 5 10%, a her bes, up o 95% of all es cases. Tha shows mporan ha was frs very carefully o sudy dsrbuons of daa ses have been classfed and use dfferen cleanng echnques n order o oban bes classfcaon resuls. B. Denns and S. Muhukrshnan [25] have proposed an effcen medcal daa classfcaon sysem based on Adapve Genec Fuzzy Sysem (AGFS). In her research 1) Generang rules from daa as well as for he opmzed rules selecon, adapng of genec algorhm s done and o explan he exploraon problem n genec algorhm, nroducon of new operaor, called sysemac addon s done, 2) Proposng a smple echnque for schemng of membershp funcon and Dscrezaon, and 3) Desgnng a fness funcon by allowng he frequency of occurrence of he rules n he ranng daa. Adeny e al. [26] has presened a sudy of auomac web usage daa mnng and recommendaon sysem based on curren user behavor hrough hs/her clck sream daa on he newly developed Really Smple Syndcaon (RSS) reader webse, n order o provde relevan nformaon o he ndvdual whou explcly askng for. The K-Neares-Neghbor (KNN) classfcaon mehod has been raned o be used onlne and n Real-Tme o denfy clens/vsors clck sream daa, machng o a parcular user group and recommend a alored browsng opon ha mee he need of he specfc user a a parcular me. Ther resul shows ha he K-Neares Neghbor classfer was ransparen, conssen, sraghforward, smple o undersand, hgh endency o possess desrable quales and easy o mplemen han mos oher machne learnng echnques specfcally when here s lle or no pror knowledge abou daa dsrbuon. 3. Problem Defnon In hs secon dscuses he problem defnon of my research work The daa conans redundan and rrelevan arbues classfcaon produce less accurae resul [22]. The sraghforward cleanng of medcal daa se mpared s classfcaon resul consderably wh some machne learnng mehods, bu no all Inernaonal Journal of Inellgen Engneerng and Sysems, Vol.9, No.3, 2016 of hem unexpecedly and agans nuon compare o he orgnal suaon whou any daa cleanng [24]. The avalably of huge amoun of medal daa leads o he need for powerful daa analyss ools o exrac useful knowledge. Dagnoss of mos of he dsease s expensve as many ess are requred o predc dsease. The cos dagnoss by avodng many ess by selecon of hose arbue. Number of work carred ou for predcon varous dsease comparng he performance of predcve daa mnng. The physcs dagnose represened by human experse can be ncurrence o fal. In conras he daa mnng can be recru he exrac knowledge from huge of clncal daa hrough daa mnng and produce a predcve model use he classfcaon ask o acheve he dagnosc [13]. The analyss of daa mnng process requred for medcal daa mnng especally o dscover locally frequency dsease such as hear algnmen lung cancer, breas cancer and so on. Classfcaon accuracy s mproved by removng mos rrelevan feaures he daase. Ensemble model s used for mprovng classfcaon accuracy by combnng he predcon of mulple classfers. The healhcare ndusry gahers enormous of hear dsease daa whch s unforunaely o dscover hdden nformaon for effecve decson The sgnfcan progress made n he dagnoss and reamen of hear dsease, furher nvesgaon s sll needed [16]. Medcal professonals need a relable predcon mehodology o dagnose Dabees. 4. Proposed Mehodology In hs research we have nend o propose an effcen mehod o classfy he medcal daa. In medcal daa classfcaon, n order o acheve beer resul orhogonal local preservng proecon and opmal classfer wll be used n he proposed echnque. A frs he npu daa se s seleced from he medcal daabase. Then preprocessng wll be appled n he npu medcal daa se. In preprocessng sage we have o exrac he useful daa from he raw medcal daase. Afer preprocessng he npu daase wll be hgh dmensonal or hgh feaures; so he hgh number of feaure s a grea obsrucon for predcon. Therefore, feaure dmenson reducon mehod wll

Once he feaure reducon s formed, he predcon wll be done based on he opmal classfer. In he opmal classfer, group search opmzer algorhm wll be used wh Fuzzy Mn-Max neural nework. The dealed process of our proposed mehod s shown n Fg.1. frs sep of he algorhm s PCA whch helps n dmensonaly reducon. An adacency graph s bul by OLPP and he class relaonshp beween he sample pons s bes refleced by. I s no easy o reconsruc he daa snce Localy Preservng Proecons (LPP) s non-orhogonal normally. By means of Orhogonal Localy Preservng Proecon mehod, hs problem s overcome whch produces orhogonal bass funcons and can have more localy preservng power han LPP. The Orhogonal exenson of LPP s called as he Orhogonal Localy Preservng Proecons (OLPP). The overall seps are shown n he flowchar: Fgure.1 Block dagram of proposed mehod The overall process of he proposed framework s dvded no hree sages, Sage1: Preprocessng Sage2: Feaure reducon usng OLPP Sage3: Classfcaon usng GFMMNN Sage1: Preprocessng In preprocessng sage he npu daase s gven as he npu. Here he npu medcal daa has raw daa. Ths raw daa s hghly suscepble o nose, mssng values and nconssency. The qualy of raw daa affecs he resuls of he mplemened mehod. In order o mprove he qualy of he medcal daa and consequenly, of he resuls raw daa s pre-processed so as o mprove he effcency and ease of mnng process. Daa pre-processng s one of he mos crcal seps n a daa mnng process whch deals wh he preparaon and ransformaon of he nal daase. In he paper, pre-processng s appled o he daase for geng he numercal daa from he non-numercal daa. In he sage, he non-numercal daa are removed and obaned he numercal daase for proceedng furher. The preprocessed oupu s fed o he furher process. Sage2: Feaure Reducon usng OLPP OLPP algorhm dffers from Prncpal Componen Analyss (PCA) and Lnear Dscrmnan Analyss (LDA).

Afer expanson, all hyperboxes ha have a place wh dsncve classes mus be checked by overlap es o fgure ou wheher any overlap exss. So a dmenson by dmenson comparson beween hyperboxes of dfferen class s performed. FMNN nends four es cases, a leas one of he four cases s sasfed, and hen overlap exss beween he wo hyperboxes. Oherwse, a new hyperbox needs o be added o he nework. If no overlaps occur, he hyperboxes are solaed and no conracon s requred. Oherwse, a conracon process s needed o elmnae he confuson n overlapped areas.
