Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease in elderly people.

To help clinicians in these tasks, we propose the creation of the Bioprofile of AD. A Bioprofile should reveal key patterns of a disease in the subject's biodata. We applied k-means clustering to data...
