Description
Machine learning and data-driven solutions open exciting opportunities in many disciplines including healthcare. The recent transition to this technology into real clinical settings brings new challenges. Such problems derive from several factors, including their dataset origin, composition and description, hampering their fairness and secure application. Considering the potential impact of incorrect predictions in applied-ML healthcare research is urgent.
Undetected bias induced by inappropriate use of datasets and improper consideration of confounders prevents the translation of prediction models into clinical practice. Therefore, in this work, the use of available systematic tools to assess the risk of bias in models is employed as the first step to explore robust solutions for better dataset choice, dataset merge and design of the training and validation step during the ML development pipeline.
