چکیده

We present a Bayesian network model for predicting the outcome of in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The problem is characterized by a peculiar missingness process, and we propose a simple but effective averaging approach which improves parameter estimates compared to the traditional MAP estimation. The model can provide relevant insights to IVF experts.

A Bayesian network model for predicting pregnancy after in vitro fertilization

We present a Bayesian network model for predicting the outcome of in vitro fertilization (IVF). The problem is characterized by a particular missingness process; we propose a simple but effective averaging approach which improves parameter estimates compared to the traditional MAP estimation. We present results with generated data and the analysis of a real data set. Moreover, we assess by mean...

Comparison of logistic regression and neural network models in predicting the outcome of biopsy in breast cancer from MRI findings

Background: We designed an algorithmic model based on the logistic regression analysis and a non-algorithmic model based on the Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Materials and methods: The ability of these models was compared together in clinical application to differentiate malignant from benign breast tumors in a study group of 161 patients' records. Each patient’s record consisted of 6 subjec...
