Ageing and Driving Performance in the UK Using Normal Mixture Model Cluster Analysis Technique
This research addresses the issue of an individual's ability to drive and especially of those individuals that are questionably demented (dementia is suspected) or are in a state of very mild dementia and are therefore the most difficult to identify. A methodology has been developed for categor...
