Comparison of different algorithms in lung cancer immunotherapy prediction

Model Algorithm Category Strengths Weaknesses Example
DenseNet CNN Radiomics for TMB and survive prediction Available for better performance with fewer parameters and computational costs by dense connection and feature reuse Worse performance than other algorithms under the same video memory usage [5]
SResCNN CNN Radiomics for PD-L1 and survive prediction Alleviate the network degradation problem caused by layer deepening and increased the generalization ability of the network

Network layer redundancy

Insufficient effective depth

[14]
RF ML Radiomics for PD-L1 and survive prediction

Less likely to overfit

Suitable for uneven data sets with missing variables

Easier to explain

Higher accuracy

The larger the number of decision trees, the higher memory usage. Not suitable for situations with high real-time requirements [22]
Lunit SCOPE IO DNN Pathology images for TIL and prognosis prediction Extracting richer data features and larger capacity Training process is difficult: gradient explosion, gradient disappearance, etc. [43]
LCI-RPV LR Multi-omics for PD-L1 and Pneumonia prediction

Suitable for linear variables

Easier to explain

Difficult to process nonlinear data or polynomial regression with correlation between data features [20]
MLP ANN Gut microbiome for survive prediction

Suitable for nonlinear model and real-time learning process

Stronger elf-learning function

Slower training rate

Difficult to determine the parameters

[52]
SVM ML Combined biomarkers for efficiency prediction

Suitable for high-dimensional space

High accuracy

Not suffer multicollinearity

Flexible selection of kernels for nonlinear correlation

Inefficient to train

Not suitable for plenty training examples
