A CLUSTER FRAMEWORK FOR DATA MINING MODELS - An Application to Intensive Medicine

Manuel Santos, João Pereira, Álvaro Silva

2005

Abstract

Clustering is a technique widely applied in Data Mining problems due to the granularity, accuracy and adjustment of the models induced. Although the referred results, this approach generates a considerable large set of models, which difficult the comprehension, the visualization and the application to new cases. This paper presents a framework to deal with the enounced problem supported by a three-dimensional matrix structure. The usability and benefits of this instrument are demonstrated trough a case study in the area of intensive medicine.
