Don't Let Your Analysis Go to Seed: On the Impact of Random Seed on Machine Learning-based Causal Inference.

Epidemiology (Cambridge, Mass.)
Machine learning techniques for causal effect estimation can enhance the reliability of epidemiologic analyses, reducing their dependence on correct model specifications. However, the stochastic nature of many machine learning algorithms implies that...

Comparison of machine learning and conventional statistical modeling for predicting readmission following acute heart failure hospitalization.

American heart journal
INTRODUCTION: Developing accurate models for predicting the risk of 30-day readmission is a major healthcare interest. Evidence suggests that models developed using machine learning (ML) may have better discrimination than conventional statistical mo...

Development and Validation of an Explainable Machine Learning Model for Identification of Hyper-Functioning Parathyroid Glands from High-Frequency Ultrasonographic Images.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model based on high-frequency ultrasound (HFUS) images with the aim to identify the functional status of parathyroid glands (PTGs) in secondary hyper-parathyroidism (SHPT) patients.

Development and validation of radiology-clinical statistical and machine learning model for stroke-associated pneumonia after first intracerebral haemorrhage.

BMC pulmonary medicine
BACKGROUND: Society is burdened with stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) after intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) complicates clinical manifestations of stroke. In this study, we redefined the CSVD burden score and in...

Outcome risk model development for heterogeneity of treatment effect analyses: a comparison of non-parametric machine learning methods and semi-parametric statistical methods.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: In randomized clinical trials, treatment effects may vary, and this possibility is referred to as heterogeneity of treatment effect (HTE). One way to quantify HTE is to partition participants into subgroups based on individual's risk of e...

A systematic literature review of predicting patient discharges using statistical methods and machine learning.

Health care management science
Discharge planning is integral to patient flow as delays can lead to hospital-wide congestion. Because a structured discharge plan can reduce hospital length of stay while enhancing patient satisfaction, this topic has caught the interest of many hea...

Analyzing speed-difference impact on freeway joint injury severities of Leading-Following vehicles using statistical and data-driven models.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Rear-end (RE) crashes are notably prevalent and pose a substantial risk on freeways. This paper explores the correlation between speed difference among the following and leading vehicles (Δν) and RE crash risk. Three joint models, comprising both unc...

Exploring spatial heterogeneity in factors associated with injury severity in speeding-related crashes: An integrated machine learning and spatial modeling approach.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Speeding, a risky act of driving a vehicle at a speed exceeding the posted limit, has consistently emerged as a leading contributor to traffic fatalities. Identifying the risk factors associated with injury severity in speeding-related crashes is ess...

A hybrid Machine learning and statistical modeling approach for analyzing the crash severity of mobility scooter users considering temporal instability.

Accident; analysis and prevention
One of the main objectives in improving the quality of life for individuals with disabilities, especially those experiencing mobility issues such as the elderly, is to enhance their day-to-day mobility. Enabling easy mobility contributes to their ind...

Discovery of urinary biosignatures for tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria classification using metabolomics and machine learning.

Scientific reports
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infection diagnosis remains a challenge due to its overlapping clinical symptoms with tuberculosis (TB), leading to inappropriate treatment. Herein, we employed noninvasive metabolic phenotyping coupled with comprehe...
