• Title: Interpretable Predictive Models for Healthcare via Rational Logistic Regression
• Authors: Thiti Suttaket, L Vivek Harsha Vardhan, Stanley Kok,
• Abstract summary: We develop a novel model called rational logistic regression (RLR) that has standard logistic regression (LR) as its special case. RLR has rational series as its theoretical underpinnings, works on longitudinal time-series data, and learns interpretable patterns. Empirical comparisons on real-world clinical tasks demonstrate RLR's efficacy.

• Abstract: The healthcare sector has experienced a rapid accumulation of digital data recently, especially in the form of electronic health records (EHRs). EHRs constitute a precious resource that IS researchers could utilize for clinical applications (e.g., morbidity prediction). Deep learning seems like the obvious choice to exploit this surfeit of data. However, numerous studies have shown that deep learning does not enjoy the same kind of success on EHR data as it has in other domains; simple models like logistic regression are frequently as good as sophisticated deep learning ones. Inspired by this observation, we develop a novel model called rational logistic regression (RLR) that has standard logistic regression (LR) as its special case (and thus inherits LR's inductive bias that aligns with EHR data). RLR has rational series as its theoretical underpinnings, works on longitudinal time-series data, and learns interpretable patterns. Empirical comparisons on real-world clinical tasks demonstrate RLR's efficacy.

  Counterfactual learning to rank (CLTR) has attracted extensive attention in the IR community for its ability to leverage massive logged user interaction data to train ranking models. This paper investigates the robustness of existing CLTR models in complex and diverse situations. We find that the DLA models and IPS-DCM show better robustness under various simulation settings than IPS-PBM and PRS with offline propensity estimation.

  Federated Learning (FL) allows a number of agents to participate in training a global machine learning model without disclosing locally stored data. We propose a novel probabilistic model, Hierarchical Latent Class Regression (HLCR), and its extension to Federated Learning, FEDHLCR. Our inference algorithm, being derived from Bayesian theory, provides strong convergence guarantees and good robustness to overfitting. Experimental results show that FEDHLCR offers fast convergence even in non-IID datasets.
