Abbreviations: IOP, intraocular pressure; KF-OHTN, Kalman filter built using a sample of patients with ocular hypertension from the Ocular Hypertension Treatment Study; KF-HTG, KF built using a sample of patients with high-tension glaucoma; LR, linear regression model; MD, mean deviation; PM, personalized mean model; PSD, pattern standard deviation; RMSE, root-mean-square error.
The RMSE values closer to 0 indicate estimations closer to the actual values obtained in the trial.
Percentage improvement is measured with respect to the LR1 model and computed as (RMSELR1 − RMSEM)/(RMSELR1) × 100, where RMSEM is the RMSE belonging to the KF-OHTN, KF-HTG, PM, or LR2 model. Positive percentage improvement values indicate improved performance compared with the LR1 model.
The RMSE was estimated using leave-1-out cross-validation.
