Fig. 3From: Prediction of long-term mortality by using machine learning models in Chinese patients with connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung diseaseThe Cox regression model with LASSO (Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator) was adopted to reduce the redundancy of high-dimensional features and to select the most useful prognostic features. The lambda with 1 standard error of the minimum criteria (the 1-SE criteria) by the black line, and the red line equals lambda with the minimum criteria. A λ value of 0.052, with log (λ) of − 2.950 was chosen (the minimum criteria) according to tenfold cross-validation (A). LASSO coefficient profiles of the 74 features. A coefficient profile plot was produced against the log (λ) sequence. Red vertical line was drawn at the value selected using tenfold cross-validation, where optimal λ resulted in 14 nonzero coefficients (B)Back to article page
