This paper presents a new method for diagnosing lung cancer by combination of ant colony algorithm, fuzzy logic and principal component analysis (PCA). In this method, PCA method is used to reduce the size of data sets, the fuzzy logic is used to create fuzzy rules that make it possible to be interpreted by experts. Finally, these fuzzy rules are optimized by ant colony algorithm (ACO). Evaluation and comparing the proposed method with other methods have been proposed to implement this approach, leading to lung cancer dataset with criteria such as speed, reliability, and the ability to interpret the show.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
