The primary objective of this study has aimed to develop a novel analysis procedure that can discover insightful knowledge from large medical databases. The entire analysis procedure consists of two stages. During the first stage, a kernel density estimation algorithm named relaxed variable kernel density estimation (RVKDE) is invoked to identify the samples of interest. Then, in the second stage, a density estimation algorithm based on generalized Gaussian components and named G2DE is invoked to provide a summarized description of the distribution. The results obtained by applying the proposed two-staged procedure to analyze co-morbidities of migraine revealed that the proposed procedure could effectively identify a number of clusters of samples with distinctive characteristics. The results further revealed that the distinctive characteristics of the clusters extracted by the proposed procedure were in conformity with the observations reported in recently published articles. Accordingly, it is conceivable that the proposed analysis procedure can be exploited to provide valuable clues of pathogenesis and facilitate development of proper treatment strategies. ? 2013 The Author(s). |
