Handling numeric attributes with ant colony based classifier for medical decision making
作者：
Highlights：
• We implement an ACO method named nAnt-Miner with focus on numeric attributes.
• nAnt-Miner is comparable with existing method but can also detect strong conditional dependencies between numeric attributes.
• The method achieves better results on real medical dataset than existing method.
