Risk Prediction for Individuals

The Prediction Model for Bankruptcy Risk by Bayesian Method

The importance of predicting bankruptcy risk of firms is increasing because of later financial crisis. Despite practical researchers trying to present models for predicting this risk, it seems that an optimum and acceptable model that is reliable for financial statement users and auditors in order to increase their ability in decision making and professional judgment has not been presented yet....

Toward Improved Risk Prediction in Individuals at High Risk of Psychotic Disorders.

Coronary artery calcium score combined with Framingham score for risk prediction in asymptomatic individuals.

CONTEXT Guidelines advise that all adults undergo coronary heart disease (CHD) risk assessment to guide preventive treatment intensity. Although the Framingham Risk Score (FRS) is often recommended for this, it has been suggested that risk assessment may be improved by additional tests such as coronary artery calcium scoring (CACS). OBJECTIVES To determine whether CACS assessment combined wit...

Prediction of functional outcome in individuals at clinical high risk for psychosis.

IMPORTANCE A major public health concern associated with schizophrenia and psychotic disorders is the long-term disability that involves impaired cognition, lack of social support, and an inability to function independently in the community. A critical goal of early detection and intervention studies in psychosis is therefore to understand the factors leading to this often profound impairment. ...

Application of a prediction model for identification of individuals at diabetic risk.

As a follow-up to our preceding paper, we attempted to extract features of health risk progression for diabetes in Sequential Multi Layered Perceptron (SMLP) via inverse processing of the learned structure. The time-varying risk progress was assessed with risk trajectory and conditional mixture model. Overall risk cut along with the prediction was stable over time and high body mass index (BMI)...
