UTA Study Shows Machine Learning Technique Is 30% Better at Predicting Cancer Cure Rates
by Lance Murray | Dec 6, 2023
UT Arlington principal investigator Dr. Suvra Pal said that previous studies modeling the probability of a cancer cure—also called the cure rate—"used a generalized linear model." The new statistical modeling method published by Pal and his student is said to be 30% more effective in predicting who will be cured of cancer and who will need further treatment.
