Automated Machine Learning Model Development for Intracranial Aneurysm Treatment Outcome Prediction: A Feasibility Study

Background: The prediction of aneurysm treatment outcomes can help to optimize the treatment strategies. Machine learning (ML) has shown positive results in many clinical areas. However, the development of such models requires expertise in ML, which is not an easy task for surgeons.Objectives: The r...
