Abstract:Introduction
Cancer patients are at an increased risk of moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

We hypothesize that cancer-relevant features, like radiation therapy (RT), may be used to determine the risk of OSA in cancer patients. Machine learning (ML) with non-parametric regression is applied to increase the prediction accuracy of OSA risk.
