The multiple-level strategy adopted in this study exploits the DBSCAN algorithm to select the dataset part analyzed at each iteration and locally cluster The proposed framework to analyse the patient examination history contains four main steps: (i) data collection, (ii) data transformation, (iii) cluster Figure 1: The proposed framework for the cluster analysis of patient examination data the similarity between patient examination histories, while Section 4.2.2 describes how the DBSCAN parameters and the number of clustering levels Second-level clusters collect patients that are tested using an increasing number of examinations to ./cache/work_slbvbdfjyzhnfkl3t2tfdiqp7a.pdf ./txt/work_slbvbdfjyzhnfkl3t2tfdiqp7a.txt
