  • 对比六种机器学习模型,结合超参调优提升预测准确率。
  • XGBoost表现最佳,准确率达91%,各项指标均领先。
  • 通过SHAP等方法揭示年龄、激素和家族史是关键因素。

本研究针对骨质疏松风险预测难题,采用机器学习(ML)方法并强调可解释人工智能(XAI)在提升模型透明度中的作用。骨质疏松常无症状,早期识别对预防骨折至关重要。研究评估了六种分类器:随机森林、逻辑回归、XGBoost、AdaBoost、LightGBM 和梯度提升,基于临床、人口统计与生活方式变量的数据集进行训练。所有模型均使用GridSearchCV进行超参数优化以提升预测性能。结果显示,XGBoost准确率达到91%,在精确率(0.92)、召回率(0.91)和F1分数(0.90)上均优于其他模型。进一步结合SHAP、LIME和置换重要性等XAI方法,揭示最优模型的决策机制。分析表明,年龄是预测骨质疏松风险的首要因素,其次为激素变化和家族史,结果与临床认知一致,验证了模型的临床价值。研究强调在医疗场景中可解释性的重要性,确保医生能信任系统输出。最后提出未来方向:跨人群验证及引入更多生物标志物以提升预测精度。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The present research tackles the difficulty of predicting osteoporosis risk via machine learning (ML) approaches, emphasizing the use of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) to improve model transparency. Osteoporosis is a significant public health concern, sometimes remaining untreated owing to its asymptomatic characteristics, and early identification is essential to avert fractures. The research assesses six machine learning classifiers: Random Forest, Logistic Regression, XGBoost, AdaBoost, LightGBM, and Gradient Boosting and utilizes a dataset based on clinical, demographic, and lifestyle variables. The models are refined using GridSearchCV to calibrate hyperparameters, with the objective of enhancing predictive efficacy. XGBoost had the greatest accuracy (91%) among the evaluated models, surpassing others in precision (0.92), recall (0.91), and F1-score (0.90). The research further integrates XAI approaches, such as SHAP, LIME, and Permutation Feature Importance, to elucidate the decision-making process of the optimal model. The study indicates that age is the primary determinant in forecasting osteoporosis risk, followed by hormonal alterations and familial history. These results corroborate clinical knowledge and affirm the models' therapeutic significance. The research underscores the significance of explainability in machine learning models for healthcare applications, guaranteeing that physicians can rely on the system's predictions. The report ultimately proposes directions for further research, such as validation across varied populations and the integration of supplementary biomarkers for enhanced predictive accuracy.
