Abstract: Abstract: - Lung cancer is a disease of uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung, the huge majority of primary lung cancers are carcinomas of the lung, derivative from epithelial cells. Lung cancer, the most common cause of cancer-related death in men and women. Medical images' mining involves many processes. Medical images mining is a promising area of computational intelligence applied to automatically analyze patients' records aiming at the discovery of new knowledge potentially useful for medical decision making. The methods in this proposal classify the digital X-ray images in two categories: normal and abnormal. The normal ones are those characterizing a healthy patient. The abnormal ones include Types of lung cancer; we will use a common classification method, namely neural networks, but significantly improve the accuracy rate of the classifier compared to other published results using the same data set. In addition, we investigate the use of associat!
ion rules in the problem of x-ray image categorization and demonstrate with encouraging results that association rule mining is a promising alternative in medical image classification and certainly deserves more attention.
