Extraction of fuzzy rules at different concept levels related to image features of mammography for diagnosis of breast cancer

The extracted features are referred to as fuzzy classifiers through the look-up table method. And, for evaluation of the results, the 10-fold method is used. Discretization operations are performed on training data across 2, 3, and 4 levels to develop concept hierarchy. Concept hierarchies reduce the data by replacing low-level concepts with higher-level concepts and the outcome is more meaningful and easier to interpret. Eventually, Bagging algorithm is used for finding out the majority vote and the final result of the discretization levels. The obtained accuracy is 89.37 ± 6.62.
