title = "A decision support system for pediatric diagnosis",
abstract = "Newborns are fragile and have a high risk of dying within the first 28 days of their life, therefore they require quality care from conception. This research aims at implementing a mobile pediatric diagnostic system for the rural settlers in Nigeria, reducing childhood mortality and providing an alternative pediatric professional. 581 records classified with na{\"i}ve Bayes and decision-stump-tree classifier gave a higher accuracy level for na{\"i}ve Bayes. A decision-support system is developed to aid health workers in rural areas in providing quality health service for children below six, which will provide low-cost medical service and contribute to reducing childhood mortality.",
