Table 3.

Analysis of patient dispersion with different granularity

Granularity Unike sets of recom. Sets with 10 patients Calinski–Harabasz Davies–Bouldin Silhouette index
6 144 9 36.12 1.37 0.169
5 122 11 39.12 1.42 0.152
4 94 13 38.22 1.48 0.137
3 46 14 48.47 1.42 0.137

Higher values of Calinski–Harabasz index mean that the clusters are well-delineated and compact. Lower values of Davies–Bouldin indicate that the clusters are well-separated and distinct. A higher Silhouette index indicates that patients are well-matched to their own cluster and poorly matched to neighbouring clusters
