Enhancing Interpretable Multiclass Lung Cancer Severity Classification using TabNet
Lung cancer poses a significant global mortality challenge, with early clinical detection hindered by non-specific symptoms making accurate diagnosis dependent on extracting subtle patterns from often complex medical tabular data. Traditional machine learning approaches often fall short in capturing intricate patterns within such heterogeneous datasets, hindering effective clinical decision support. This research introduces TabNet, an interpretable deep learning architecture, for multiclass lung cancer severity prediction (low, medium, high). Utilizing the Kaggle Lung Cancer dataset, our methodology leverages TabNet\u27s unique attention-based feature selection for end-to-end processing of tabular data, enabling adaptive identification of key predictors and crucial model interpretability. To effectively assess its predictive capabilities and ensure robust performance, the model was trained with default configurations and validated through stratified 5-fold cross-validation, achieving outstanding performance on the test set: 98.50% accuracy, a 0.98 F1-score, and a 0.9996 macro-AUC-ROC. Beyond its robustness, confirmed by stable learning curves, interpretability analysis highlighted \u27Genetic Risk\u27 and \u27Shortness of Breath\u27 as dominant factors. Our results underscore TabNet\u27s efficacy as a reliable, robust, and inherently interpretable solution, offering significant potential to improve the precision and transparency of lung cancer severity assessment in clinical practice
Optimizing F1 Tyre Performance Prediction with SVC, XGBoost, and Optuna For Dutch GP 2022
Formula 1 has evolved into a data-centric sport where strategic decisions, particularly tire compound selection (Soft, Medium, Hard), are critical for success. The ability to accurately identify a competitor\u27s compound from observable telemetry data offers a significant strategic advantage, yet the predictive signals are subtle and difficult to distinguish. This study implements and compares two distinct machine learning methodologies to classify F1 tyre compounds using telemetry data from the 2022 Dutch Grand Prix. First, a baseline model was established using standard dynamic features (e.g., avg_speed, avg_rpm). While this approach confirmed the superiority of XGBoost over SVC, it yielded a modest accuracy of 67.99% and revealed a critical deficiency: a failure to reliably identify the HARD compound, registering a poor F1-score of 0.57. To address these limitations, an advanced methodology was developed, integrating hybrid feature engineering (e.g., LapTime, SectorTime, TyreLife) with deep hyperparameter optimization via Optuna. This enhanced approach resulted in a significantly more robust XGBoost model, achieving a final, stable accuracy of 77.34%. More importantly, it solved the baseline\u27s primary flaw, increasing the F1-score for the critical HARD compound by 36.8% to 0.78. A feature importance analysis confirmed this methodological shift, as the most dominant predictors changed from the baseline\u27s generalized avg_speed to the advanced model\u27s outcome-based features (LapTime, Sector3Time). The findings definitively conclude that while algorithm selection is important, the most critical factor for this task is the quality of feature engineering. Integrating outcome-based and strategic-context features is essential to successfully extracting the subtle performance signatures that differentiate F1 tyre compounds
Development Of A Collaborative Recommendation System Based on Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) on E-Commerce Data
Recommendation systems (RS) are vital tools for mitigating information overload and data sparsity challenges in modern e-commerce platforms. This study focuses on developing and evaluating a Collaborative Filtering (CF) model utilizing Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) as a Matrix Factorization technique, applied to the publicly available E-commerce dataset. The dataset, comprising nine interconnected transactional tables, presents significant data sparsity due to limited explicit user ratings relative to the vast product catalog. The SVD model was implemented to decompose the highly sparse User-Item interaction matrix into lower-rank latent factor matrices, thereby capturing underlying purchasing patterns and user preferences. The model\u27s performance was rigorously validated using k-fold cross-validation and assessed via standard accuracy metrics: Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE). The experimental results demonstrated high predictive accuracy, achieving an RMSE of 1.25 and an MAE of 0.98. These findings indicate that the SVD model effectively overcomes the sparsity challenge inherent in large-scale e-commerce transactional data, providing robust prediction capabilities that surpass established industry benchmarks (e.g., RMSE » 1.31, MAE » 1.04 found in similar studies). The successful implementation validates SVD as a highly effective approach for generating personalized, high-quality product recommendations, offering substantial business implications for enhancing customer engagement and maximizing Average Order Value (AOV
Classification of Tumor and Normal Tissue Gene Expression in Lung Adenocarcinoma Using Support Vector Machine and Gaussian Process Classification
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a major cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. This study aims to identify potential LUAD biomarkers and develop robust classification models using the GSE151101 microarray dataset. Preprocessing included RMA normalization, ComBat batch-effect correction, and feature filtering based on annotation completeness, variability, and statistical significance. Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Gaussian Process Classification (GPC) models were constructed, with the polynomial GPC model achieving the best performance (accuracy 97.92%; F1-score 97.96%). Repeated 10-fold cross-validation confirmed its stability (mean accuracy 96.88%, SD ±1.97%, CV 2.03%), outperforming linear SVM, GPC-RBF, and Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL). Functional enrichment analysis showed that key discriminative genes; CDH13, CDKN2A, BCL2L11, MYL9, COL1A1, and AKT3; were enriched in pathways related to epithelial–mesenchymal transition, extracellular matrix remodelling, focal adhesion, PI3K/AKT signalling, and cell-cycle regulation, all of which are central to LUAD progression. In general, polynomial-kernel GPC is a stable and useful way to classify transcriptomes and rank biomarkers. Nevertheless, the translational potential of these signatures requires further validation in independent and clinically controlled cohorts
