Comparison of Machine Learning and Traditional Statistical Models for Prediction of In-Hospital Mortality Following Stroke

Description

Abstract:
Risk calculators for predicting mortality in stroke patients can be used to identify which patients require additional attention and could ultimately result in fewer deaths and more efficient use of resources. We present a comparison of classical statistics and machine learning models for predicting in-hospital mortality following stroke. Our results demonstrate that the studied approaches have complementary performance and therefore have the potential to be used in combination to predict mortality.
