Abstract

In this article, we describe the process of discovering similar patterns in time series and creating reference models for population groups in a medical domain, and particularly in the field of physiotherapy, using data mining techniques on a set of isokinetic data.The discovered knowledge was evaluated against the expertise of a physician specialised in isokinetic techniques, and applied in the I4 (Intelligent Interpretation of Isokinetic Information) project developed in conjunction with the Spanish National Centre for Sports Research and Sciences and the School of Physiotherapy of the Spanish National Organisation for the Blind for muscular diagnosis and rehabilitation, injury prevention, training evaluation and planning, etc., of elite and blind athletes.
