Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor found among young and middle aged women. Feature Selection is a process of selecting most enlightening features from the data set which preserves the original significance of the features following reduction. The traditional rough set method cannot be directly ap - plied to deafening data. This is usually addressed by employing a discretization method, which can result in information loss. This paper proposes an approach based on the tolerance rough set model, which has the flair to deal with real-valued data whilst simultaneously retaining dataset semantics. In this paper, a novel supervised feature selection in mammogram images, using Tolerance Rough Set - PSO based Quick Reduct (STRSPSO-QR) and Tolerance Rough Set - PSO based Relative Reduct (STRSPSO-RR), is proposed. The results obtained using the proposed methods show an increase in the diagnostic accuracy.
