چکیده
In this paper we present an overview of the applications of data mining in administrative, clinical, research, and educational aspects of Health Informatics. The current or potential applications of various data mining techniques in Health Informatics are illustrated through a series of case studies from published literature. The paper also provides a detailed discussion of how clinical data warehousing in combination with data mining can improve various aspects of Health Informatics. Finally, we point out a number of unique challenges of data mining in Health informatics.

متن کاملData mining: qualitative analysis with health informatics data.
The new computational algorithms emerging in the data mining literature--in particular, the self-organizing map (SOM) and decision tree analysis (DTA)--offer qualitative researchers a unique set of tools for analyzing health informatics data. The uniqueness of these tools is that although they can be used to find meaningful patterns in large, complex quantitative databases, they are qualitative...
