Abstract
Data mining is an important research activity in the field of medical sciences since there is a requirement of efficient methodologies for analyzing and detecting diseases. Data mining applications are used for the management of healthcare, health information, patient care system, etc. It also plays a major role in analyzing survivability of a disease. Classification and clustering are the popular data mining techniques used to understand the various parameters of the health data set. In this research work, various classification models are used to classify thyroid disease based on the parameters like TSH, T4U and goiter. Several classification techniques like K-nearest neighbour, support vector machine and Naive Bayes are used. The experimental study has been conducted using Rapid miner tool and the results shows that the accuracy of K-nearest neighbour is better than Naive Bayes to detect thyroid disease.
