Title: | Naive Bayesian-based nomogram for prediction of prostate cancer recurrence |
Conference Title: | 15th Conference on Medical Informatics Europe (MIE 1999) |
Abstract: | This paper introduces a schema with naive-Bayesian classifier and patient weighting technique to develop a prostate cancer recurrence prediction model from patient data. We propose the graphical presentation of naive-Bayesian classifier with a nomogram, which can be used both for prediction or can provide means to data analysis. The resulting model was experimentally evaluated; the results were favorable both in terms of interpretability and predictive accuracy. |
