Abstract

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death, and breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women. One method to realize the level of malignancy of breast cancer from an early age is by classifying the cancer malignancy using data mining. One of the widely used data mining methods with a good level of accuracy is the Support Vector Machine (SVM) and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN). Evaluation techniques of percentage split and cross-validation were used to evaluate and compare the SVM and KNN classification models. The result was that the accuracy level of the SVM classification method was better than the KNN classification method when using the cross-validation technique, which is 95,7081%. Meanwhile, the KNN classification method was better than the SVM classification method when using the percentage split technique, which is 95,4220%. From the comparison results, it can be seen that the KNN and SVM methods work well in the classification of breast cancer.
