Enhancing Cardiovascular Risk Stratification with Interpretable Ensemble Learning: A Comparative Analysis and Explainable AI-Driven Insights

· 0 citations · 23 references

TL;DR

Results show that computationally efficient and interpretable ensembles provide a viable alternative to more complex models, particularly in data-constrained clinical settings, and highlight the potential of interpretable ensemble learning to develop dependable, deployable clinical decision support tools for integration into hospital or e-health systems for early CVD risk stratification.

Development and internal–external validation of an interpretable machine learning model integrating clinical and polygenic predictors for coronary artery disease: a multicenter retrospective cohort study

Background Accurate primary-prevention risk stratification for coronary artery disease (CAD) remains challenging. We developed and internally validated a framework integrating clinical variables with a polygenic risk score (PRS). Methods This three-center retrospective cohort included 2,067 adults without baseline CAD....
