Predictive modeling, Risk estimation, Probability, Public health, Clinical outcomesAbstract
In healthcare research, predictive modeling is commonly utilized to forecast risk variables and enhance treatment procedures for improved patient outcomes. Enormous quantities of data are being created as a result of recent advances in research, clinical trials, next-generation genomic sequencing, biomarkers, and transcriptional and translational studies. Understanding how to handle and comprehend scientific data to offer better treatment for patients is critical. Currently, multiple prediction models are being utilized to investigate patient outcomes. However, it is critical to recognize the limitations of these models in the research design and their unique benefits and drawbacks. In this overview, we will look at linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, and artificial neural network prediction models, as well as their advantages and disadvantages. The two most perilous requirements for building any predictive healthcare model are feature selection and model validation. Typically, feature selection is done by a review of the literature and expert opinion on that subject. Model validation is also an essential component of every prediction model. It characteristically relates to the predictive model's performance and accuracy. It is strongly recommended that all clinical parameters should be thoroughly examined before using any prediction model.
