  1. INTRODUCTION

    The reason of data mining is to extract useful information from large databases or data warehouses. Data mining applications are used for commercial and scientific sides [1]. This study mainly talks about the Data Mining applications in the scientific area. Scientific data mining distinguishes itself in the sense that the nature of the datasets is often very different from traditional market driven data mining applications. Data mining algorithms applied in healthcare industry play a major role in guess and identification of the diseases. Large numbers of data mining applications are found in the medical related areas such as Disease identification, Medical Equipment industry, Pharmaceutical Industry and Hospital Management. Popularly data mining called knowledge discovery from the data. The knowledge discovery is an interactive process, consisting by developing an understanding of the application domain, selecting and creating a data set, preprocessing, data transformation. Data Mining has been used in a variety of applications such as marketing, customer relationship management, engineering, and medicine analysis, expert prediction, web mining and mobile and mobile computing.

    Expanding the health coverage to as many people as possible, and providing financial assistance to help those with lower incomes purchase coverage [2]. Health administration or healthcare administration is the field relating to leadership, management, and administration of hospitals, hospital networks, and health care systems[1,3]. In the Healthcare sector Government spends more money.

    Proposal in draft NHP 2001 is timely that State health expenditures be raised to 7% by 2015 and to 8% of State budgets thereafter .

    Health spending in India at 6% of GDP is among the highest levels estimated for developing countries.

    Public spending on health in India has itself declined after liberalization from 1.3% of GDP in 1990 to 0.9% in 1999. Central budget allocations for health have stagnated at 1.3%of the total Central budget. In the States it has declined from7.0% to 5.5% of the State health budget.

    Data mining tools to answer the question that traditionally was a time consuming and too complex to resolve. They prepare databases for finding predictive information. Data mining tasks are Association Rule, Patterns, Classification and Prediction, Clustering. Most common modeling objectives are classification and prediction.

    This paper mainly compares the data mining tools deal with the health care problems. The relative study compares the exactness level predicted by data mining applications in healthcare. Infertility is on the rise across the globe and it needs the sophisticated techniques and methodologies to predict the end results of infertility treatments particulars IVF (in-vitro fertilization) treatments, since the cost of IVF procedure is on the rise.

    In this study, we have taken this issue and compare the diverse techniques of data mining applications for predicting the achievement rate of IVF treatment with the accuracy level. This comparative study could be useful for aspiring researchers in the field of data mining by knowing which data mining tool gives an accuracy level in extracting healthcare data.

    The detailed study of selected works gives a broad idea about the application of data mining techniques. This study mainly compares the three different data mining applications carried out on the prediction of the IVF treatment success rate.

    1. Application of rough set theory for medical informatics data analysis

    The research work aims to analyze the medical data by applying Rough Set Theory of data mining approach. The data reduction process has been done using rough set theory reduction algorithm. Rough set is mainly used to reduce the attributes without compromising its knowledge of the original.

    Table 2. IVF success rate by rough set

    Table 2. IVF success rate by rough set

     

    To analyze the fertilization data, ROSETTA tool kit reduction algorithm is used in this work to produce the optimal result set without affecting the original knowledge. The treatment success rate is predicted and tabulated as depicted in Table 2.

    The actual and desired outputs are compared with each other. It also depicts that the success rate obtained after reducing the number of attributes is 47%.

    1. Artificial neural network in classification and prediction

      This research work is mainly aimed to predict and classify the IVF treatment results using Artificial Neural Network (ANN).

      Table 3. IVF success rate predicted by ANN

      The artificial neural network is constructed with multi- layer perception and back-propagation training algorithm, and constructed network is trained, tested and validated using patients sample IVF data. This work finally compares the success rate between desired output which is field recorded data and actual output which is predicted output of neural network. In the Table 3, the comparison between desired and actual output of the neural network is illustrated.

      This work finds the actual output using patients IVF data by applying Artificial Neural Network. By comparing success rate, desired and actual output, the result obtained has a prediction accuracy of 73%.

    2. Modeling an integrated methodology of neural networks and rough sets for analyzing medical data

    This work is mainly aimed to develop a combined preiction system for analyzing medical data using Artificial Neural Network and Rough Set Theory. Two kinds of rules Deterministic and Non-deterministic are effected in the application of Rough set tool. For the rough set application, the software tool Neuro solution is used to predict the result. The performance of the combined technique of Artificial neural network and rough set theory is described in the Table 4.

    Table 4. Performance of IVF success Rate prediction using hybrid technique

    The prediction accuracy of this hybrid approach of combined use of ANN and RST is around 90%. These comparison results of three different data mining applications for predicting the success rate of IVF treatments are shown in Table 5 and Fig. 5.

    Table 5. Comparison analysis

    The application of combined Rough Set and Artificial Neural Network yields better result when compared with other techniques. It is observed that the hybrid technique of combined use of two or more machine learning tool yields better results than the use of a single technique for mining information from the database.

  6. CONCLUSION

This paper designed to compare the different data mining application in the healthcare division for extracting useful information. Exploring knowledge from the medical data is such a risk task as the data found are noisy, irrelevant and huge too. In this scenario, data mining tools come in practical in exploring of knowledge of the medical data and it is quite interesting. It is experimental from this study that a combination of more than one data mining techniques than a single technique for diagnosing or predicting diseases in healthcare sector could yield more promising results. The comparison study shows the interesting results that data mining techniques in all the health care applications give a more encouraging level of accuracy like 97.77% for cancer prediction and around 70% for estimating the success rate of IVF treatment.
