Medical Data Mining Using Different Classification and Clustering Techniques: A Critical Survey

One of the applications of data mining isdisease diagnosis for this purpose one needs medicaldataset to identify hidden patterns and finally extractsuseful knowledge from medical database. Recently, researchers have used different classification andclustering algorithms for diagnosing diseases. Thispaper provides survey on two different complexdiseases which includes the heart disease and Cancerdisease, paper critically observed the existing literaturework to find out significant knowledge in this area andsummarized different approaches used in diseasediagnosing, further discussed about the tools availablefor processing and classification of data.
