Core Tip

Core Tip: Big data have been applied in many fields including finance, traffic control, logistics, healthcare, and environmental protection. Modeling is an efficient method for completing various tasks, and verification of its validity is vital for ensuring high-quality operation and yielding satisfactory results. Predictor screening guarantees the establishment of a practical, convenient, and favorable model for prognosis prediction. Utilizing a regression model trained with numerous data mined from big data acquired from real-world hospitals is helpful for informing disease or status onset and its prognosis such as in variceal rebleeding, which is one of the leading causes of death in cirrhosis patients.
