Abstract:

In the paper the visualization of medical data sets by Samonn’s mapping is tested. This mapping performs the projection of multidimentional data into the small size space. For the purpose of visualization the size is equal 2. The obtained results were verified with the results of statistical approach. The application of Samonn’s mapping seems to be promising results for discovering the new regularities in the data and for producing the prognosis of the disease free survival for new patients, as well. In the future development of application the implementation of neural network is planned, which will perform the transformation of new data in an automatically way and it will help to find the values of missing data.
