This research attempts to construct a predictive model using data mining technology that helps to predict the infants' immunization status in Ethiopia. This study is guided by a Hybrid-data mining model which is a six step knowledge discovery process model such as problem understanding, data understanding, data preparation, data mining as well as evaluation and use of the discovered knowledge. The study has used 8,210 instances, 12 predicting and one outcome variables.....
