Abstract :
Computerization of hospital information enables us to visualize and analyze temporal characteristics of hospital services, which can be viewed as a first step to improve and innovate clinical services. This paper proposes a temporal data mining process which consists of similarity-based mining such as clustering and MDS. The results show that the reuse of stored data will give a powerful tool to characterize temporal trends of clinical actions in divisions of a hospital.
