This study is difficult to compare with ours, as it differs with respect to the timeframes chosen for the cohorts, the matched design, and the much lower number of patients.
Since the models were grouped based on the number of features (1 6) used for the models, we calculated the average profits and hit ratios with respect to the length of timeframes and the size of training set (for each value of no. of features).
Proposed method provides very accurate results within significantly lower computational timeframes with respect to the existing reliability analysis methods, which makes it appropriate for application in computationally very demanding reliability based design optimization (RBDO) environment.
It allows them to respond dynamically to changes within a rapid timeframe and to assess the effects of change with respect to the constraints imposed upon them by other product cycle factors.
This means that those who carry it out will be confronted with a formidable analytical task: based on discussions and observations, they will need to generate scenarios with respect to the efforts needed to overcome likely resource and conceptual constraints in an acceptable timeframe.
That timeframe is consistent with the decadal survey but wildly optimistic with respect to the time it would take NSF, or any federal agency, to conduct such a review.
