In randomized, placebo controlled clinical trials (RCT) in major depressive disorders (MDD), treatment response (TR) is estimated by the change from baseline at study-end (EOS) of the scores of clinical scales used for assessing disease severity. Tre...

Ordinal responses commonly occur in psychology, e.g., through school grades or rating scales. Where traditionally parametric statistical models like the proportional odds model have been used, machine learning (ML) methods such as random forest (RF) ...

Development of materials by mixing different base components is a widespread methodology to create materials with improved properties compared to those of its base components. However, efficient determination of the properties of mixture-based materi...

INTRODUCTION: Stunting affects one-fifth of children globally with diarrhea accounting for an estimated 13.5% of stunting. Identifying risk factors for its precursor, linear growth faltering (LGF), is critical to designing interventions. Moreover, de...
BACKGROUND: Whether machine learning approaches are superior to classical statistical models for survival analyses, especially in the case of lack of proportionality, is unknown.
In causal inference, parametric models are usually employed to address causal questions estimating the effect of interest. However, parametric models rely on the correct model specification assumption that, if not met, leads to biased effect estimate...
Yuan et al. developed a predictive model for early response using sub-regional radiomic features from multi-sequence MRI alongside clinical factors. However, biases in feature selection and assessment may lead to misleading conclusions regarding feat...

OBJECTIVE: Paraspinal muscle segmentation and reconstruction from MR images are critical to implement quantitative assessment of chronic and recurrent low back pains. Due to unclear muscle boundaries and shape variations, current segmentation methods...
Most statistical and machine learning models used for binary data modeling and classification assume that the data are balanced. However, this assumption can lead to poor predictive performance and bias in parameter estimation when there is an imbala...
An accelerated failure time (AFT) model assumes a log-linear relationship between failure times and a set of covariates. In contrast to other popular survival models that work on hazard functions, the effects of covariates are directly on failure tim...
