A Naive Bayes machine learning approach to risk prediction using censored, time-to-event data.
This paper proposed an adaptation of the well-known Naive Bayes machine learning approach to time-to-event outcomes subject to censoring. It compared the predictive performance of that method with the Cox proportional hazards model which is commonly used for risk prediction in healthcare populations, and illustrated its application to prediction of cardiovascular risk using an electronic health record dataset from a large Midwest integrated healthcare system.
