Comparison of logistic regression, support vector machines, and deep learning classifiers for predicting memory encoding success using human intracranial EEG recordings.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: We sought to test the performance of three strategies for binary classification (logistic regression, support vector machines, and deep learning) for the problem of predicting successful episodic memory encoding using direct brain recordin...

Fuzzy entropy based on differential evolution for breast gland segmentation.

Australasian physical & engineering sciences in medicine
For the diagnosis and treatment of breast tumors, the automatic detection of glands is a crucial step. The true segmentation of the gland is directly related to effective treatment effect of the patient. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an autom...

A comparative study of logistic regression based machine learning techniques for prediction of early virological suppression in antiretroviral initiating HIV patients.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Treatment with effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) lowers morbidity and mortality among HIV positive individuals. Effective highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) should lead to undetectable viral load within 6 months of initiati...

Support Vector Machines and logistic regression to predict temporal artery biopsy outcomes.

Canadian journal of ophthalmology. Journal canadien d'ophtalmologie
OBJECTIVE: Support vector machines (SVM) is a newer statistical method that has been reported to be advantageous to traditional logistic regression for clinical classification. We determine if SVM can better predict the results of temporal artery bio...

Predicting hospital readmission for lupus patients: An RNN-LSTM-based deep-learning methodology.

Computers in biology and medicine
Hospital readmission is one of the critical metrics used for measuring the performance of hospitals. The HITECH Act imposes penalties when patients are readmitted to hospitals if they are diagnosed with one of the six conditions mentioned in the Act....

Identifying people at risk of developing type 2 diabetes: A comparison of predictive analytics techniques and predictor variables.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: The present study aims to identify the patients at risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). There is a body of literature that uses machine learning classification algorithms to predict development of T2D among patients. The current study compares ...

Predictive connectome subnetwork extraction with anatomical and connectivity priors.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
We present a new method to identify anatomical subnetworks of the human connectome that are optimally predictive of targeted clinical variables, developmental outcomes or disease states. Given a training set of structural or functional brain networks...

Application of machine-learning to predict early spontaneous preterm birth among nulliparous non-Hispanic black and white women.

Annals of epidemiology
PURPOSE: Spontaneous preterm birth is a leading cause of perinatal mortality in the United States, occurring disproportionately among non-Hispanic black women compared to other race-ethnicities. Clinicians lack tools to identify first-time mothers at...

The utility of artificial neural networks and classification and regression trees for the prediction of endometrial cancer in postmenopausal women.

Public health
OBJECTIVE: Artificial neural networks (ANNs) and classification and regression trees (CARTs) have been previously used for the prediction of cancer in several fields. In our study, we aim to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of three different meth...

Exploiting MEDLINE for gene molecular function prediction via NMF based multi-label classification.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Gene ontology (GO) provides a representation of terms and categories used to describe genes and their molecular functions, cellular components and biological processes. GO has been the standard for describing the functions of specific genes in differ...
