Cancer is a life-threatening disease with high mortality rates. In the Indian subcontinent, women have a higher possibility to be diagnosed with cancer than men. The most common cancers identified in Indian women are Breast Cancer and Cervical Cancer. Both these cancers have high survival rates in case of early prediction. This paper reviews the attributes which are used in the existing datasets for prediction of these two cancers. The paper also proposes new attributes to overcome the limitations of existing ones, which will further increase the effectiveness of cancer prediction systems. The efficiency of existing and proposed attributes is compared by processing datasets through data mining algorithms using WEKA tool. The algorithms used for this study are-J48 (Decision Tree), Naï ve Bayes, Random Forest, Random Tree, KStar and Bagging Algorithm. The empirical analysis done in the paper reported improvement in the efficiency of cancer prediction over existing prediction systems.
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.
