Variable selection for optimal treatment decision.
In decision-making on optimal treatment strategies, it is of great importance to identify variables that are involved in the decision rule, i.e. those interacting with the treatment. Effective variable selection helps to improve the prediction accuracy and enhance the interpretability of the decision rule. We propose a new penalized regression framework which can simultaneously estimate the opt...
متن کاملVariable Selection for Optimal Decision Making
This paper discusses variable selection for medical decision making; in particular decisions regarding when to provide treatment and which treatment to provide. Current variable selection techniques were developed for use in a supervised learning setting where the goal is optimal prediction of treatment response. These techniques often leave behind small but important interaction variables that...
متن کاملBayesian Nonparametric Variable Selection for Optimal Treatment Decisions
Clinical trials are often performed on a heterogeneous group of patients having different characteristics. Although the goal of the trials is generally to assess the treatment effect over the population of interest, sub-populations that respond differently to the treatment can exist. Identifying the sub-populations that respond best to each treatment allows for a better prescription scheme and ...
متن کاملOptimal instance selection for improved decision tree
Instance selection plays an important role in improving scalability of data mining algorithms, but it can also be used to improve the quality of the data mining results. In this dissertation we present a new optimization-based approach for instance selection that uses a genetic algorithm (GA) to select a subset of instances to produce a simpler decision tree with acceptable accuracy. The result...
