Abstract
Low bone mineral density and loss of bone tissue can result in weak and fragile bones that are characteristic of osteoporosis disease. This common public health problem has no symptoms. Osteoporosis is a disease considered as the global epidemic of the 21st century. This disease is usually pronounced in children and adolescents as osteopenia. The following article aims to classify and detect bone mineral density in children and adolescents from a range of 6 to 11 years of age by pre-processing data with the KDD process and using association rules as a classification technique. Subsequently, the results are compared with the database of a real densitometer. The results show the statistics of children who have osteoporosis and osteopenia.
