Predicting intervention outcomes in ARAT, BBT, and NHPT using data collected pre-intervention — detailed performance of best performing models

Best performing models and feature sets
Model Feature set Balanced accuracy (%) Sensitivity (%) Specificity (%) Precision (%)
ARAT Linear regression 1, 6 89 100 79 67
BBT Decision tree 1 83 67 100 100
NHPT Linear regression 5 73 67 79 57

Best performing models were selected according to the balanced accuracy and their ability to correctly identify the unexpected non-responder. Feature set nomenclature: (1) patient master data (ms type, chronicity, age, sex); (2) intervention group; (3) disability (EDSS, disability group); (4) conventional scales of body functions (motricity index, static fatigue index, monofilament index, symbol digit modality test, Fahn’s tremor rating scale); (5) digital health metrics of sensorimotor impairments (ten VPIT metrics); (6) conventional scale of activity (ARAT, NHPT, BBT)
