摘要

The article investigates the application of association rule mining, in particular the Frequent Pattern Growth (FP-Growth) algorithm, for combinatorial biomarker discovery for Type 2 Diabetes disease. The dataset used for the case study contains measurements from 100 subjects. The results obtained identify “interesting” rules associated with Type 2 Diabetes which were evaluated by the domain expert as being 88,23% relevant and 11,77% partly relevant. A comparative study aiming to compare rule mining methods with other techniques for biomarkers discovery approaches is work in progress.
