Mechanistic Models: Compartment Models in Individual and Population Analysis

Mechanistic models are utilized in individual analysis using single-source data, but imperfections arise due to data collection errors, preventing perfect prediction of observed data. The mathematical equation involves known values (Xi), observed concentrations (Ci), measurement errors (εi), model parameters (ϕj), and the related function (ƒi) for i number of values. Different least-squares metrics quantify differences between predicted and observed values. The ordinary least squares (OLS)...

Machine Learning Algorithms for Early Detection of Bone Metastases in an Experimental Rat Model

Published on: August 16, 2020

  • Evaluated classification performance of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Naïve Bayes (NB), Recursive Partitioning and Regression Trees (RPART), and Support Vector Machines (SVM).
  • Utilized K-way cross-validation and independent validation, with and without filter-based feature selection.

    • Main Results:

    • ANN and SVM consistently demonstrated top performance, especially with numerous features.
    • RPART and KNN (k=5) showed the poorest classification accuracy.
    • Performance degraded with increased irrelevant features and measurement noise; LDA was most affected.
    • Filter-based feature selection generally enhanced performance, particularly for LDA.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed simulation model effectively evaluates ML methods for in vitro to in vivo toxicity prediction.
    • SVM and ANN are recommended as strong candidates for real-world applications in chemical toxicology.
    • This approach aids in reducing reliance on animal testing through accurate in vitro data analysis.
