INDEXING OF LARGE SCALE PATIENT SET

Systems and methods for indexing data include formulating an objective function to index a dataset, a portion of the dataset including supervision information. A data property component of the objective function is determined, which utilizes a property of the dataset to group data of the dataset. A supervised component of the objective function is determined, which utilizes the supervision information to group data of the dataset. The objective function is optimized using a processor based upon the data property component and the supervised component to partition anode into a plurality of child nodes.
