题目：Subgroup Discovery Using Consensus Clustering Methods: Applications to Deep Phenotyping Data
摘要：Discovery of patient subtypes with differential profiles of risk for multiple outcomes is essential for improving health promotion and precision medicine strategies. For many disease subpopulations, unique phenotypes exist, but their subgroup identity is not observable. Discovery of unique clusters will potentially open up prognostic insights into likely outcomes, etiological insights into causal pathways, and prevention strategy insights for improved health outcomes.
