Machine learning-based prognostic model for patients with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma by Yihan Sun, Da Lin, Xiangyang Deng, Yinlong Zhang

“…We developed an RSF model and a traditional Cox model using the training cohort and further compared their performance based on calibration and discrimination. integrated brier score (iBS) was used to estimate the calibration ability. The Brier score, C-index value, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve with the area under the curve (AUC) and Decision Curves Analysis (DCA) were evaluated. …”
