Abstract

In this work we describe a rule-based classifier (DEQAR-CC), which employs a combination of selected rules after a two-phase training process, and without the need of a previous discretization for the numerical variables. It was compared in the application to a real imbalanced dataset regarding the toxicity during and after radiation therapy for prostate cancer. In this comparison with other predictive methods (rule-based, artificial neural networks, trees, Bayesian and logistic regression), DEQAR-CC showed a better global prediction performance than the rest of classifiers, in an evaluation regarding several performance measures and by using cross-validation. Finally, it was employed to obtain a predictive model for genitourinary toxicity, obtaining an interpretable classification scheme which simply combines two rules with two variables.
