Summary: This study developed a machine learning model to predict the prognosis of patients with primary breast lymphoma. The incidence of primary breast lymphoma increased significantly before 2004 and then began to decrease. The trend of primary breast lymphoma varies by age and race. The prognosis of patients has been improved in recent years.

Summary: This study aimed to build a multi-criteria text mining model for COVID-19 testing reasons and symptoms. The model integrates with a temporal predictive classification model for COVID-19 test results in underserved rural areas. By using look-up wordlists and a multi-criteria mapping process, the text mining model classifies the notes related to testing reasons and reported symptoms into one or more categories.

Summary: This study focuses on the issue of student attrition in distance learning and proposes the use of big data and machine learning methods to predict student failure. The research finds that the imbalance problem in minority classes is often overlooked in conventional models, but the proposed algorithms can address this issue. Additionally, early time predictions and the significance of written assignments and specific quizzes are also highlighted.

Summary: Predictive analytics and artificial intelligence are crucial for improving organizational performance and managerial decision-making. This study focused on identifying MLB free agents likely to receive a contract, using a design science research paradigm and CAM theory to develop a framework. The research found that a player's statistical performance and factors like age, Wins above Replacement, and last team played for are significant in predicting contract signings.

Summary: This study proposes a practical terminology system for respiratory support methods, develops heuristics for constructing respiratory support episodes, and evaluates the utility of respiratory support information for mortality prediction. The results show that the addition of respiratory support information significantly improves mortality prediction, and the proposed representation method performs well, with respiratory support features being among the most important.

Summary: Breast cancer, a leading cause of death for women worldwide, can be detected through genetic markers. However, the high cost of genetic tests in developing countries like India prevents many patients from accessing timely diagnosis. To address this issue, a computer-assisted genetic test method (CAGT) is proposed to predict gene expressions and classify breast cancer in a faster and more cost-effective manner.

Summary: This study examined the knowledge, attitudes, and intentions related to conflicting recommendations for breast cancer screening among racially/ethnically diverse women. The findings suggest that divergent screening recommendations may lead to mistrust and paradoxically reinforce high overall enthusiasm for screening.

Summary: The research shows that social media data significantly increases the predictive power of traditional box office prediction models. Facebook data outperforms Twitter data and including user-generated content consistently improves predictive power. Combination variables based on volume and valence of Facebook comments are identified as the most important variables.

Summary: Early detection of glaucoma is crucial for preventing irreversible blindness. A predictive analytic framework was developed using machine learning and logistic regression methods on electronic health records (EHR) from over 650 hospitals and clinics in the USA. The study found that the XGBoost, MLP, and RF methods performed well in predicting glaucoma one year before onset, with an AUC score of 0.81, compared to 0.73 for logistic regression. This suggests that machine learning methods can identify potential pre-glaucoma patients in advance, leading to early intervention and prevention.
