Abstract

It is considered that many people are struggling with diseases that are difficult to diagnose. In general, it takes a long time to diagnose and to cure such diseases. There may be also people who are struggling with diseases that we have not classified yet. In Japan, methods for curing 56 incurable diseases have been studied. However, methods for discovering unclassified diseases have not been studied. This paper proposes a new system that supports doctors in thinking of new criteria for classifying diseases.
