Abstract :
This paper studies the application of fuzzy cluster analysis for medical image data mining. Decision tree algorithms are applied to the data mining of the mammography classification and a medical image classifier based on decision tree algorithm is proposed. The experimental results show that the system performs quite well in accuracy and therefore reveals the potential of data mining in medical treatment assistance.
