1. Predicting True Sepsis and Culture-positive Sepsis in Intensive Care Unit with Machine Learning Techniques
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikAbstract : Sepsis, a serious medical condition often leading to patients requiring intensive care, has prompted numerous scientists to employ mathematical techniques to aid in its diagnosis. This thesis uses logistic regression and a machine learning technique, XGBoost, to predict true sepsis (as opposed to sepsis mimics) and culture-positive sepsis (among true sepsis) in critical care using blood test results, physiological measurements and other patient characteristics.

2. ASSESSING PREDICTION CONDITIONS ANDSEQUENTIAL CLASSIFICATION IN ICU SEPSISPREDICTION
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionenAbstract : Patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) often have a higher risk of sepsis due to weakened immune systems. Early sepsis diagnosis is crucial for timely treatment, emphasizing the need to improve the predictive capabilities of sepsis prediction models. READ MORE

3. MODELING INPUT VARIABLE AGE IN SEPSIS PREDICTION USING TREE-BASED MODELS
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionenAbstract : Last observation carried forward (LOCF) is a common imputation method, regularly used for clinical data. It is based on the principle that the most recent observation that is known is carried forward to replace missing values. READ MORE

4. Explainable AI techniques for sepsis diagnosis : Evaluating LIME and SHAP through a user study
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : Articial intelligence has had a large impact on many industries and transformed some domains quite radically. There is tremendous potential in applying AI to the eld of medical diagnostics. A major issue with applying these techniques to some domains is an inability for AI models to provide an explanation or justication for their predictions. READ MORE

5. Sepsis : Genotypic analysis of clinical Klebsiella spp. using next-generation sequencing
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response system and can occur when the immune system over- or under- reacts to an infection. Klebsiella spp. READ MORE
