2009 International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications Workshops
Machine Learning Applied to BRCA1 Hereditary Breast Cancer Data
Bradford, United Kingdom
May 26-May 29
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3639-2
This research aims to provide a tool to doctors in order to help for diagnosis of BRCA1 hereditary breast cancer. Our goal is to determine, if possible, profiles that are responsible for early cancer onset. In order to extract knowledge from the biological information above we will create a relational database that will allow prognosticating cancer apparition. We want to determine different types responsible for different profiles of cancer onset thanks to machine learning programs. The prognostic will rely on polymorphisms of a gene, BRCA1, but on family history as well. The machine learning software(s) will be used as a tool by doctors as a help for diagnosis. This tool will be used in order to determine if these patients are member of a high risk cluster, an early occurring cancer.
Index Terms:
breast cancer, BRCA1, inductive logic programming, Heredity, polymorphism
