When Personalization Harms: Reconsidering the Use of Group Attributes in Prediction
Vinith M. Suriyakumar, Marzyeh Ghassemi, Berk Ustun
Machine learning models are often personalized with categorical attributes that are protected, sensitive, self-reported, or costly to acquire. In this work, we show models that are…
A comparison of approaches to improve worst-case predictive model performance over patient subpopulations
Stephen R. Pfohl, Haoran Zhang, Yizhe Xu +3
Predictive models for clinical outcomes that are accurate on average in a patient population may underperform drastically for some subpopulations, potentially introducing or reinfo…
Confounding Feature Acquisition for Causal Effect Estimation
Shirly Wang, Seung Eun Yi, Shalmali Joshi +1
Reliable treatment effect estimation from observational data depends on the availability of all confounding information. While much work has targeted treatment effect estimation fr…
Probabilistic Machine Learning for Healthcare
Irene Y. Chen, Shalmali Joshi, Marzyeh Ghassemi +1
Machine learning can be used to make sense of healthcare data. Probabilistic machine learning models help provide a complete picture of observed data in healthcare. In this review,…
Short-term Mortality Prediction for Elderly Patients Using Medicare Claims Data
Maggie Makar, Marzyeh Ghassemi, David Cutler +1
Risk prediction is central to both clinical medicine and public health. While many machine learning models have been developed to predict mortality, they are rarely applied in the…
