Abstract :
In this paper we present an approach based on data-driven clustering of patient-centric models for ubiquitous healthcare environments. The use of clusters of models instead of patient-specific models offers the advance of dynamic reconfiguration of the models according to upcoming healthcare events that appear for members of the cluster. The healthcare events are related to the patient´s health condition.
