	%X The classical temporal scan statistic is often used to
identify disease clusters. In recent years, this method has become as a
very popular technique and its field of application has been notably
increased. Many bioinformatic problems have been solved with this
technique. In this paper a new scan fuzzy method is proposed. The
behaviors of classic and fuzzy scan techniques are studied with
simulated data. ROC curves are calculated, being demonstrated the
superiority of the fuzzy scan technique.
