Abstract

Computational intelligence techniques were applied to human brain cancer magnetic resonance spectral data. In particular, two approaches, Rough Sets and a Genetic Programming-based Neural Network were investigated and then confirmed via a systematic Individual Dichotomization algorithm. Good preliminary results were obtained with 100% training and 100% testing accuracy that differentiate normal versus malignant samples.
