Developing Prediction RulesBased on a Set of Markers • Regression approach to approximate Y | Z • Continuous or binary outcome:Generalize linear regression • Survival outcome: • Proportional Hazards model • Time-specific prediction models • Regression modeling as a vehicle: • the procedure has to be valid when the imposed statistical model is not the true model!
Y = 0 Y = 1 Developing and Evaluating Prediction Rules • Predict Y with Z based on the prediction model • Evaluate the performance of the prediction by the average “distance” between and Y • The utility or cost to predicting Y as is • The average “distance” is • Examples: • Absolute prediction error: • Total “Cost” of Risk Stratification:
and Evaluating and Comparing Prediction Rules • The performance of the prediction model/rule with can be estimatedby • Prediction Model/Rule Comparison: • Prediction with E(Y | Z) = g1(a’Z) vs E(Y | W) = g2(b’W) • Compare two models/rules by comparing

Example: Breast Cancer Data • To compare • Model II: g(a + Node + ER) • Model III: g(a + Node + ER + Gene) • Choosing cut-off values for each model to achieve SE = 69% which is an attainable value for Model II, then • Model II SP = 0.45, PPV = 0.35, NPV = 0.77 • Model III SP = 0.75, PPV = 0.54, NPV = 0.85 • 95% CI for the difference in • SP:[0.11, 0.45], PPV: [0.01, 0.24], NPV: [0.06, 0.19]
Prediction IntervalAccounting for the Precision of the Prediction • Based on a prediction model • predict the response • summarize the corresponding population average accuracy • What if the population average accuracy of 70% is not satisfactory? How to achieve 90% accuracy? • What if can predict Y0 more precisely for certain Z0, while on the other hand fails to predict Y0 accurately? • Account for the precision of the prediction? Identify patients would need further assessment?
Classic Rule: Risk of Death < 0.50 Survivor {Y=0} Risk of Death ≥ 0.50 Non-survivor {Y=1} Predicted Risk = 0.51 Predicted Risk = 0.04 {0} {1}
Prediction Interval • To account for patient-levelprediction error, one may instead predict such that • The optimal interval for the population with Z0 is • : estimated conditional density function
Example: Breast CancerStudy • Data: 295 patients • Response: 10 year survival • Predictors: Lymph-Node Status, Estrogen Receptor Status, Gene Score • Model • Possible prediction sets: {}, {0}, {1}, {0,1} • Classic prediction: considers {0}, {1} only.
90% Prediction Set: {0,1} 90% Prediction Set: {0} Predicted Risk = 0.04 Predicted Risk = 0.51
