Utilization of Data mining Approaches for Prediction of Life Threatening Diseases Survivability

Abstract

Data mining now-a-days plays an important role in prediction of diseases in health care industry. The Health care industry utilizes data mining Techniques and finds out the information which is hidden in the data set. Many diagnoses have been done for predicting diseases. Without knowing the knowledge of profound medicine and clinical experience the treatment goes wrong. The time taken to recover from diseases depends on patients' severity. For finding out the disease, number of test needs to be taken by patient. In most cases not all test become more effective. And at last it leads to the death of the patient. Many experiments have been conducted by comparing the performance of predictive data mining for reducing the number of test taken by the patient indirectly. This research paper is to present a survey on predicting the presence of life threatening diseases which causes to death and list out the various classification algorithms that has been used with number of attributes for prediction.
