The relevance of this study lies in improvement of machine learning models understanding. We present a method for interpreting clustering results and apply it to the case of clinical pathways modeling. This method is based on statistical inference and allows to get the description of the clusters, determining the influence of a particular feature on the difference between them. Based on the proposed approach, it is possible to determine the characteristic features for each cluster. Finally, we compare the method with the Bayesian inference explanation and with the interpretation of medical experts [1].
