To mitigate diagnostic errors by physicians, Shimizu proposed a methodology, "Pivot and Cluster Strategy", which employs a map of diseases, comprising a set of diseases in a plane, to indicate existence of incognizant diseases around a disease that a physician once focused in diagnostic process. The generation of the disease maps necessitates the similarity data between diseases, and thus, we have been investigating approaches to calculate the similarity between any given diseases, using
