Title
The usage of machine learning algorithms in predicting mortality among cancer patients.
Summary
I would like to use data from Participants Questionnaires in my year-end project for Machine Learning course. I would like to compare some machine learning algorithms and methods in effectiveness of predicting mortality cases for cancer patients. I would like to try find determinants of death from data collected by Questionnaires.
Aims

I would like to compare accuracy of some classification methods in predicting mortality of cancer patients. I am going to use logistic regression, support vector machine etc.
