Abstract
Practical use of mathematical methods of pattern recognition in medicine and psychology faces a number of problems, caused by the peculiarities of data and users. The author, a doctor by education, analyzes these problems and offers his own algorithm, based on frequency analysis. He also gives examples of solving actual practical problems by means of the programs written on the basis of the offered algorithm.
