The expenses in Health Care are an important portion of the overall expenses of every country, so it is very important to determine if the given cares are the right ones. This work is about a methodology, Health Discoverer, and a consequent software, aimed to disease management and to the measure of appropriateness of cares, and in particular is about the data mining techniques used to verify Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) compliance and the discovery of new, better guidelines. The work is based on Quality Records, episode parsing using Ontologies and Hidden Markov Models.

Tracking vessel movements has become increasingly important in fisheries research to identify fishing grounds, monitor responses to area closures, and other actions for fishery managers. Vessel monitoring systems (VMS) have given fishery managers and researchers the ability to study vessel interactions by automated tracking of vessels throughout fishing seasons. The high spatial and temporal resolution obtained from VMS records in the Gulf of St. Lawrence snow crab (Chionoecetes opilio) fishery provides information on movement patterns and fishing locations. With the use of hidden Markov models (HMM), we inferred behaviours exhibited by the fishermen during the course of fishing trips and related these behaviours to catch rates across years with varying abundance estimates. The HMM classified three behavioural states in the VMS data that were identified with travelling, setting traps in novel locations (new sets), and retrieving previously set traps (resets). Catches within a trip were modeled by combining VMS-based estimates of these behaviours with logbook information in a generalized linear model. Our model demonstrates that behavioural variables can contribute to the standardization of catch similar to classical trip and vessel variables used in constructing abundance indices.
