The feasibility of a Bayesian network model to assess the probability of simultaneous symptoms in patients with advanced cancer

Abstract: Although patients with advanced cancer often experience multiple symptoms simultaneously, clinicians usually focus on symptoms that are volunteered by patients during regular history-taking. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a Bayesian network (BN) model to predict the presence of simultaneous symptoms, based on the presence of other symptoms. Our goal is to help clinicians prioritize which symptoms to assess. Patient-reported severity of 11 symptoms (scale 0–10) was measured using an adapted Edmonton Sy… Show more

“…To evaluate model performance, we used the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), mean absolute error (MAE), and mean squared error (MSE), as suggested in the literature [49,50]. The high AUC value indicates a robust overall classification accuracy between the predicted probabilities of event occurrence and the observed presences and absences.…”
