Fig. 4From: Comparison and development of machine learning tools in the prediction of chronic kidney disease progressionFactors effect size. The a–i histogram describes the proportion of factoric importance of different predictors in the model. For each model, the relative importance is quantified by assigning a weight between 0 and 1 for each variable. The models XGBoost and RF allow the importance of variables to be derived during model training; the coefficients of the Elastic Net, Lasso, and Ridge models are used as the basis for factor importance; the k-NN, LR, NN, and SVM models are obtained by the Mean decrease accuracy method. j The average factor importance of the top 5 models according to AU-ROCBack to article page
