Transductive reliability estimation

چکیده
10 In the past decades Machine Learning tools have been successfully used in 11 several medical diagnostic problems. While they often significantly out12 perform expert physicians (in terms of diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and 13 specificity), they are mostly not being used in practice. One reason for this 14 is that it is difficult to obtain an unbiased estimation of diagnose’s reliabil15 ity. We discuss how reliability of diagnoses is assessed in medical decision 16 making and propose a general framework for reliability estimation in Ma17 chine Learning, based on transductive inference. We compare our approach 18 with a usual (Machine Learning) probabilistic approach as well as with clas19

Transductive Reliability Estimation for Kernel Based Classifiers
Estimating the reliability of individual classifications is very important in several applications such as medical diagnosis. Recently, the transductive approach to reliability estimation has been proved to be very efficient when used with several machine learning classifiers, such as Naive Bayes and decision trees. However, the efficiency of the transductive approach for state-of-the art kerne...
متن کاملEstimating Confidence Values of Individual Predictions by their Typicalness and Reliability
Although machine learning algorithms have been successfully used in many problems, and are emerging as valuable data analysis tools, their serious practical use is affected by the fact that often they cannot produce reliable and unbiased assessments of their predictions’ quality. There exist several approaches for estimating reliability or confidence for individual classifications, and many of ...
