Abstract
We obtained data on thyroid ultrasound, pathology and functional indices of selected cases in thyroid surgery from the Third Hospital of North Medicine. All of these cases had one or more thyroid nodules, and our question of interest was how to select from these available data the variables most relevant to the classification of the course of thyroid nodules. We attempted this using association rule mining, which comes from the earlier work of Prof Yau.
