Hi Hassan,

Is there a difference between medical data mining and data mining as such? I actually don't think so The technique is the same, the databases to consult evidently different.

Hence are you asking for databases with medical intelligence in them ? And where to find them?

Because the technique for data mining is now distributed by the NSA, an obscure American Military Intelligence Organisation operating out of control of even the president of the USA.. It is said they don't need the software for data mining any more because there are to much whistleblowers in the NSA. Hence no use collecting data, when they are regularly blown into the open, and making the US president look like a fool.

But medical databases undoubtedly exist on the web? Question is, what are you looking for? The NSA din't even know that. They collected everything even stamps from your country ;-) to know more about the local flora.

Cheers,

Frank

Hi Guys, great subject! I've read recently a paper called "Uniqueness of medical data mining" that sustains the idea of some questions on the data mining that must be a concern on medical data. Take a look and tells us what you think :)
