英文摘要：
This research paper investigates the effectiveness of simple linear models versus complex machine learning techniques in breast cancer diagnosis, emphasizing the importance of interpretability and computational efficiency in the medical domain. We focus on Logistic Regression (LR), Decision Trees (DT), and Support Vector Machines (SVM) and optimize their performance using the UCI Machine Learning Repository dataset. Our findings demonstrate that the simpler linear model, LR, outperforms the more complex DT and SVM techniques, with a test score mean of 97.28%, a standard deviation of 1.62%, and a computation time of 35.56 ms. In comparison, DT achieved a test score mean of 93.73%, and SVM had a test score mean of 96.44%. The superior performance of LR can be attributed to its simplicity and interpretability, which provide a clear understanding of the relationship between input features and the outcome. This is particularly valuable in the medical domain, where interpretability is crucial for decision-making. Moreover, the computational efficiency of LR offers advantages in terms of scalability and real-world applicability. The results of this study highlight the power of simplicity in the context of breast cancer diagnosis and suggest that simpler linear models like LR can be more effective, interpretable, and computationally efficient than their complex counterparts, making them a more suitable choice for medical applications.

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer has emerged as one of the most prevalent cancers among women leading to a high mortality rate. Due to the heterogeneous nature of breast cancer, there is a need to identify differentially expressed genes associated with breast cancer subtypes for its timely diagnosis and treatment. OBJECTIVE: To identify a small gene set for each of the four breast cancer subtypes that could act as its signature, the paper proposes a novel algorithm for gene signature identification. METHODS: The present work uses interpretable AI methods to investigate the predictions made by the dee…
Open-set recognition generalizes a classification task by classifying test samples as one of the known classes from training or "unknown." As novel cancer drug cocktails with improved treatment are continually discovered, predicting cancer treatments can naturally be formulated in terms of an open-set recognition problem. Drawbacks, due to modeling unknown samples during training, arise from straightforward implementations of prior work in healthcare open-set learning. Accordingly, we reframe the problem methodology and apply a recent existing Gaussian mixture variational autoencoder model, wh…
Cardiotoxicity induced by the breast cancer treatments (i.e., chemotherapy, targeted therapy and radiation therapy) is a significant problem for breast cancer patients. The cardiotoxicity risk for breast cancer patients receiving different treatments remains unclear. We developed and evaluated risk predictive models for cardiotoxicity in breast cancer patients using EHR data. The AUC scores to predict the CHF, CAD, CM and MI are 0.846, 0.857, 0.858 and 0.804 respectively. After adjusting for baseline differences in cardiovascular health, patients who received chemotherapy or targeted therapy a…

Image classification is widely used to build predictive models for breast cancer diagnosis. Most existing approaches overwhelmingly rely on deep convolutional networks to build such diagnosis pipelines. These model architectures, although remarkable in performance, are black-box systems that provide minimal insight into the inner logic behind their predictions. This is a major drawback as the explainability of prediction is vital for applications such as cancer diagnosis. In this paper, we address this issue by proposing an explainable machine learning pipeline for breast cancer diagnosis base…

The ability to accurately estimate risk of developing breast cancer would be invaluable for clinical decision-making. One promising new approach is to integrate image-based risk models based on deep neural networks. However, one must take care when using such models, as selection of training data influences the patterns the network will learn to identify. With this in mind, we trained networks using three different criteria to select the positive training data (i.e. images from patients that will develop cancer): an inherent risk model trained on images with no visible signs of cancer, a cance…
