To do or not to do? Cost-sensitive causal classification with individual treatment effect estimates

چکیده
• We introduce a cost-sensitive decision-making framework for causal classification. derive the classification boundary to maximize expected profit. establish new ranking approach with individual treatment effects. Experiments demonstrate an increase in profit compared cost-insensitive ranking. Individual effect models allow optimizing by predicting of on outcome interest instances. These predictions selecting instances treat order optimize overall efficiency and net effect. In this article, we extend upon value based effects case binary outcome. The is linear function estimated effect, positive probability cost benefit parameters problem setting. It allows causally classifying negative class profit, which introduced as objective at hand present ranker ranks maximizing each possible threshold that results from constraint number treatments differs conventional proposed experimentally evaluated synthetic marketing campaign data sets. indicate presented method outperforms approach.

Performance of electrophysiologic study in an asymptomatic patient with type 2 intermittent Brugada syndrome: To do or not to do?
Background: Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited channelopathy, which is associated with sudden cardiac death due to rapid polymorphic VT or VF. There is no definite consensus regarding the management of asymptomatic patients. Some experts advocate close follow-up; others propose the programmed stimulation for risk stratification. We aimed to evaluate the benefit of complete atrial and ventri...
متن کاملTo do or not to do?
Contrasting an imaginary German laboratory worker who in 1939 sabotaged experiments involving the mentally retarded, and an imaginary American animal liberationist who recently vandalized a primate research facility, Singer discusses civil disobedience by animal rightists. He raises and answers criticisms as to why the German worker and the animal liberationist both were justified in their act...
