Patent ID: 8589187

Claim:
A method, comprising: receiving patient values of one or more parameters, wherein the patient values of the one or more parameters are associated with a patient; performing parameter-based cluster analysis on the patient and a set of patients, the performing comprising: identifying a first sub-set of the set of patients having an associated first disposition and a second sub-set of the set of patients having an associated second disposition, wherein the first sub-set has first values for the one or more parameters and the second sub-set has second values, different from the first values, for the one or more parameters, and, determining that the patient fits in the first sub-set rather than the second sub-set based on similarity of the patient values for at least some of the one or more parameters to the first values for the one or more parameters; and, causing a graphical user interface (GUI) to be generated that conveys: that the patient fits in the first sub-set that is associated with the first disposition, the one or more parameters utilized in the cluster analysis and other patient parameters that were excluded from the cluster analysis, and the patient values for the one or more parameters, wherein the causing further includes generating an option to change some of the one or more parameters utilized in the cluster analysis, and further wherein at least the performing and the causing are performed by a computing device.
