Abstract
Mahalanobis Taguchi System (MTS) is a pattern information technology, which has been used in different diagnostic applications to make quantitative decisions by constructing a multivariate measurement scale using data analytic methods without any assumption regarding statistical distribution. The MTS performs Taguchi's fractional factorial design based on the Mahahlanobis Distance (MS) as a performance metric. In this work, MTS is used for analyzing Wisconsin Breast Cancer data which has ten attributes. Ten different tests are conducted for the data to determine if the patient has cancer or not. Also, MTS is used for reducing the number of test to define the relationship between each attribute and diagnosis result. The accuracy of diagnosis is compare with two different previous research.
