Correction Correction: Engineering Novel Features for Diabetes Complication Prediction Using Synthetic Electronic Health Records(Frontiers Media S.A., 2025-08-29) Voskergian, Daniel; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Yousef, MalikArticle Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 15Textnettopics Pro, a Topic Model-Based Text Classification for Short Text by Integration of Semantic and Document-Topic Distribution Information(Frontiers Media S.A., 2023-10-05) Voskergian, Daniel; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Yousef, MalikWith the exponential growth in the daily publication of scientific articles, automatic classification and categorization can assist in assigning articles to a predefined category. Article titles are concise descriptions of the articles' content with valuable information that can be useful in document classification and categorization. However, shortness, data sparseness, limited word occurrences, and the inadequate contextual information of scientific document titles hinder the direct application of conventional text mining and machine learning algorithms on these short texts, making their classification a challenging task. This study firstly explores the performance of our earlier study, TextNetTopics on the short text. Secondly, here we propose an advanced version called TextNetTopics Pro, which is a novel short-text classification framework that utilizes a promising combination of lexical features organized in topics of words and topic distribution extracted by a topic model to alleviate the data-sparseness problem when classifying short texts. We evaluate our proposed approach using nine state-of-the-art short-text topic models on two publicly available datasets of scientific article titles as short-text documents. The first dataset is related to the Biomedical field, and the other one is related to Computer Science publications. Additionally, we comparatively evaluate the predictive performance of the models generated with and without using the abstracts. Finally, we demonstrate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed approach in handling the imbalanced data, particularly in the classification of Drug-Induced Liver Injury articles as part of the CAMDA challenge. Taking advantage of the semantic information detected by topic models proved to be a reliable way to improve the overall performance of ML classifiers.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 3Engineering Novel Features for Diabetes Complication Prediction Using Synthetic Electronic Health Records(Frontiers Media S.A., 2025-04-14) Voskergian, Daniel; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Yousef, MalikDiabetes significantly affects millions of people worldwide, leading to substantial morbidity, disability, and mortality rates. Predicting diabetes-related complications from health records is crucial for early prevention and for the development of effective treatment plans. In order to predict four different complications of diabetes mellitus, i.e., retinopathy, chronic kidney disease, ischemic heart disease, and amputations, this study introduces a novel feature engineering approach. While developing the classification models, we utilize XGBoost feature selection method and various supervised machine learning algorithms, including Random Forest, XGBoost, LogitBoost, AdaBoost, and Decision Tree. These models were trained on synthetic electronic health records (EHR) generated by dual-adversarial autoencoders. These EHRs represent nearly 1 million synthetic patients derived from an authentic cohort of 979,308 individuals with diabetes. The variables considered in the models were the age range accompanied by chronic diseases that occur during patient visits starting from the onset of diabetes. Throughout the experiments, XGBoost and Random Forest demonstrated the best overall prediction performance. The final models, which are tailored to each complication and trained using our feature engineering approach, achieved an accuracy between 69% and 77% and an AUC between 77% and 84% using cross-validation, while the partitioned validation approach yielded an accuracy between 59% and 78% and an AUC between 66% and 85%. These findings imply that the performance of our method surpass the performance of the traditional Bag-of-Features approach, highlighting the effectiveness of our approach in enhancing model accuracy and robustness.
