Title: Machine learning-based clinical prediction modeling -- A practical guide for clinicians
Authors: Julius M. Kernbach, Victor E. Staartjes
Abstract summary: The number of manuscripts related to machine learning or artificial intelligence has exponentially increased over the past years. In the first section, we provide explanations on the general principles of machine learning. In further sections, we review the importance of resampling, overfitting and model generalizability and strategies for model evaluation.

Abstract: In the emerging era of big data, larger available clinical datasets and computational advances have sparked a massive interest in machine learning-based approaches. The number of manuscripts related to machine learning or artificial intelligence has exponentially increased over the past years. As analytical machine learning tools become readily available for clinicians to use, the understanding of key concepts and the awareness of analytical pitfalls are increasingly required for clinicians, investigators, reviewers and editors, who even as experts in their clinical field, sometimes find themselves insufficiently equipped to evaluate machine learning methodologies. In the first section, we provide explanations on the general principles of machine learning, as well as analytical steps required for successful machine learning-based predictive modelling - which is the focus of this series. In further sections, we review the importance of resampling, overfitting and model generalizability as well as feature reduction and selection (Part II), strategies for model evaluation, reporting and discussion of common caveats and other points of significance (Part III), as well as offer a practical guide to classification (Part IV) and regression modelling (Part V), with a complete coding pipeline. Methodological rigor and clarity as well as understanding of the underlying reasoning of the internal workings of a machine learning approach are required, otherwise predictive applications despite being strong analytical tools are not well accepted into the clinical routine. Going forward, machine learning and artificial intelligence shape and influence modern medicine across disciplines including the field of neurosurgery.

Detecting Shortcut Learning for Fair Medical AI using Shortcut Testing [62.9062883851246]
Machine learning holds great promise for improving healthcare, but it is critical to ensure that its use will not propagate or amplify health disparities. One potential driver of algorithmic unfairness, shortcut learning, arises when ML models base predictions on improper correlations in the training data. Using multi-task learning, we propose the first method to assess and mitigate shortcut learning as a part of the fairness assessment of clinical ML systems.

Demystifying Deep Learning Models for Retinal OCT Disease Classification using Explainable AI [0.6117371161379209]
The adoption of various deep learning techniques is quite common as well as effective, and its statement is equally true when it comes to implementing it into the retina Optical Coherence Tomography sector. These techniques have the black box characteristics that prevent the medical professionals to completely trust the results generated from them. This paper proposes a self-developed CNN model which is comparatively smaller and simpler along with the use of Lime that introduces Explainable AI to the study.

Namely, we discuss: insufficient training data, decentralized datasets, high cost of annotations, ambiguous ground truth, imbalance in class representation, asymmetric misclassification costs, relevant performance metrics, generalization of models to unseen datasets, model decay, adversarial attacks, explainability, fairness and bias, and clinical validation.
