Analysis using Adaptive Tree Structured Clustering Method for Medical Data of Patients with Coronary Heart Disease

Abstract

It is known that the classification of medical data is difficult problem because the medical data has ambiguous information or missing data. As a result, the classification method that can handle ambiguous information or missing data is necessity. In this paper we proposed an adaptive tree structure clustering method in order to clarify clustering result of selforganizing feature maps. For the evaluating effectiveness of proposed clustering method for the data set with ambiguous information, we applied an adaptive tree structured clustering method for classification of coronary heart disease database. Through the computer simulation we showed that the proposed clustering method was effective for the ambiguous data set
