DBCSMOTE: a clustering-based oversampling technique for data-imbalanced warfarin dose prediction.


ABSTRACT:

Background

Vitamin K antagonist (warfarin) is the most classical and widely used oral anticoagulant with assuring anticoagulant effect, wide clinical indications and low price. Warfarin dosage requirements of different patients vary largely. For warfarin daily dosage prediction, the data imbalance in dataset leads to inaccurate prediction on the patients of rare genotype, who usually have large stable dosage requirement. To balance the dataset of patients treated with warfarin and improve the predictive accuracy, an appropriate partition of majority and minority groups, together with an oversampling method, is required.

Method

To solve the data-imbalance problem mentioned above, we developed a clustering-based oversampling technique denoted as DBCSMOTE, which combines density-based spatial clustering of application with noise (DBCSCAN) and synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE). DBCSMOTE automatically finds the minority groups by acquiring the association between samples in terms of the clinical features/genotypes and the warfarin dosage, and creates an extended dataset by adding the new synthetic samples of majority and minority groups. Meanwhile, two ensemble models, boosted regression tree (BRT) and random forest (RF), which are built on the extended dataset generateed by DBCSMOTE, accomplish the task of warfarin daily dosage prediction.

Results

DBCSMOTE and the comparison methods were tested on the datasets derived from our Hospital and International Warfarin Pharmacogenetics Consortium (IWPC). As the results, DBCSMOTE-BRT obtained the highest R-squared (R2) of 0.424 and the smallest mean squared error (mse) of 1.08. In terms of the percentage of patients whose predicted dose of warfarin is within 20% of the actual stable therapeutic dose (20%-p), DBCSMOTE-BRT can achieve the largest value of 47.8% among predictive models. The more important thing is that DBCSMOTE saved about 68% computational time to achieve the same or better performance than the Evolutionary SMOTE, which was the best oversampling method in warfarin dose prediction by far. Meanwhile, in warfarin dose prediction, it is discovered that DBCSMOTE is more effective in  integrating BRT than RF  for warfarin dose prediction.

Conclusion

Our finding is that the genotypes, CYP2C9 and VKORC1, no doubt contribute to the predictive accuracy. It was also discovered left atrium diameter, glutamic pyruvic transaminase and serum creatinine included in the model actually improved the predictive accuracy; When congestive heart failure, diabetes mellitus and valve replacement were absent in DBCSMOTE-BRT/RF, the predictive accuracy of DBCSMOTE-BRT/RF decreased. The oversampling ratio and number of minority clusters have a large impact on the effect of oversampling. According to our test, the predictive accuracy was high when the number of minority clusters was 6?~?8. The oversampling ratio for small minority clusters should be large (>?1.2) and for large minority clusters should be small (
