Table 3.

Model performance comparisons. Shown is the model performance comparisons for the machine learning approaches for accuracy, AUC, sensitivity and specificity. AUC 5 area under the ROC curve; LR 5 logistic regression; MARS 5 multivariate adaptive regression splines; CART 5 classification and regression trees; RF 5 random forests.
