Nowadays, Electronic Medical Record (EMR) has just implemented at few hospitals for Outpatient Department (OPD). OPD is the diversified data, it includes demographic and diseases of patient, so it need to be clustered in order to explore the hidden rules and the relationship of data types of patient's information. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for unsupervised clustering of patient's demographic and diseases in OPD. Firstly, we collect data from a hospital at OPD. Then, we preprocess and transform data by using powerful techniques such as standardization, label encoder, and categorical encoder. After obtaining transformed data, we use some strong experiments, techniques, and evaluation to select the best number of clusters and best clustering algorithm. In addition, we use some tests and measurements to analyze and evaluate cluster tendency, models, and algorithms. Finally, we obtain the results to analyze and discover new knowledge, meanings, and rules. Clusters that are found out in this research provide knowledge to medical managers and doctors. From these information, they can improve the patient management methods, patient arrangement methods, and doctor's ability. In addition, it is a reference for medical data scientist to mine OPD dataset.

Investors aim to increase their profitability by investing in the stock market. An adroit strategy for minimizing related risk lies through diversifying portfolio operationalization. In this paper, we propose a six-step stocks portfolio selection model. This model is based on data mining clustering techniques that reflect the ensuing impact of the political, economic, legal, and corporate governance in Mongolia. As a dataset, we have selected stock exchange trading price, financial statements, and operational reports of top-20 highly capitalized stocks that were traded at the Mongolian Stock Exchange from 2013 to 2017. In order to cluster the stock returns and risks, we have used k-means clustering techniques. We have combined both k-means clustering with Markowitz's portfolio theory to create an optimal and efficient portfolio. We constructed an efficient frontier, creating 15 portfolios, and computed the weight of stocks in each portfolio. From these portfolio options, the investor is given a choice to choose any one option.

The multivariate analysis techniques of cluster analysis are examined in this article. The theory and applications of the techniques and computer software concerning these techniques are discussed and sample jobs are included. A hierarchical cluster analysis algorithm, available in the IMSL software package, is applied to a set of data extracted from a group of subjects for the purpose of partitioning a collection of 26 attributes of a weapon system into six clusters of superattributes. A nonhierarchical clustering procedure were applied to a collection of data of tanks considering of twenty-four observations of ten attributes of tanks. The cluster analysis shows that the tanks cluster somewhat naturally by nationality. The principal componant analysis and the discriminant analysis show that tank weight is the single most important discriminator among nationality although they are not shown in this article because of the space restriction. This is a part of thesis for master's degree in operations research.

A competitive learning network was proposed as unsupervised training method of remote sensing data, Its performance and computational re¬quirements were compared with conventional clustering techniques such as Se¬quential and K - Means. An airborne remote sensing data set was used to study the performance of these classifiers. The proposed algorithm required a little more computational time than the conventional techniques. However, the perform¬ance of competitive learning network algorithm was found to be slightly more than those of Sequential and K - Means clustering techniques.

This data mining technique was used to extract useful information from percutaneous coronary intervention data obtained from the US public data homepage. The experiment was performed by extracting data on the area, frequency of operation, and the number of deaths. It led us to finding of meaningful correlations, patterns, and trends using various algorithms, pattern techniques, and statistical techniques. In this paper, information is obtained through efficient decision tree and cluster analysis in predicting the incidence of percutaneous coronary intervention and mortality. In the cluster analysis, EM algorithm was used to evaluate the suitability of the algorithm for each situation based on performance tests and verification of results. In the cluster analysis, the experimental data were classified using the EM algorithm, and we evaluated which models are more effective in comparing functions. Using data mining technique, it was identified which areas had effective treatment techniques and which areas were vulnerable, and we can predict the frequency and mortality of percutaneous coronary intervention for heart disease.

Several clustering algorithms to analyze gene expression data and cluster validation techniques that assess the quality of their outcomes, have been suggested, but evaluations of these cluster validation techniques have seldom been implemented. In this paper we compared various cluster validity indices for simulation data and real genomic data, and found that Dunn's index is more effective and robust through small simulations and with real gene expression data.

Aggregating local features in a single vector is a fundamental problem in an image search. In this process, the image search process can be speeded up if binary features which are extracted almost two order of magnitude faster than gradient-based features are utilized. However, in order to utilize the binary features in an image search, it is necessary to study the techniques for clustering binary features to generate binary visual words. This investigation is necessary because traditional clustering techniques for gradient-based features are not compatible with binary features. To this end, this paper studies the techniques for clustering binary features for the purpose of generating binary visual words. Through experiments, we analyze the trade-off between the accuracy and computational efficiency of an image search using binary features, and we then compare the proposed techniques. This research is expected to be applied to mobile applications, real-time applications, and web scale applications that require a fast image search.

Data mining is an emerging area of computational intelligence that offers new theories, techniques, and tools for analysis of large data sets. The major techniques used in data mining are mining association rules, classification and clustering. Since these techniques are used individually, it is necessary to develop the methodology for rule extraction using a process of integrating these techniques. Rule extraction techniques assist humans in analyzing of large data sets and to turn the meaningful information contained in the data sets into successful decision making. This paper proposes an autonomous method of rule extraction using clustering and rough set theory. The experiments are carried out on data sets of UCI KDD archive and present decision rules from the proposed method. These rules can be successfully used for making decisions.

Objectives : There are plenty of medical record of acupuncture & moxibustion in Traditional East Asian medicine(TEAM). We performed this study to find out the hidden criteria lies on this record to choose proper acupoints. Methods : "Zhenjiuzishengjing", ancient TEAM book was analysed using document clustering techniques. Corpus was made from this book. It contained 196 texts driven from each symptoms. Each texts converted to vector representing frequency of 349 acupoints. Distance of vectors calculated by weighted Euclidean distance method. According to this distances, hierarchical clustering of symptoms was builded. Results : The cluster consisted of five large groups. they had high corelation with body part; head and face, chest, abdomen, upper extremity, lower extremity, back. Conclusions : It assumes that body part of symptom is the most importance criteria of acupoints selecting. some high similar symptom vectors consolidated this result. the other criteria is cause and pathway of illness. some symptoms bound together which had common cause and pathway.

Clustering or classification is a very fundamental task that may occur almost everywhere for the purpose of grouping. Optimal clustering is an example of very complicated combinatorial optimization problem and it is hard to develop a generally applicable optimal algorithm. In this paper we propose a general-purpose algorithm for the optimal clustering based on SA(simulated annealing). Among various iterative global optimization techniques imitating natural phenomena that have been proposed and utilized successfully for various combinatorial optimization problem, simulated annealing has its superiority because of its convergence property and simplicity. We first present a version of accelerated simulated annealing(ASA) and then we apply ASA to develop an efficient clustering algorithm. Application examples are also given.
