Fig. 2

Selection process of variables. Figure 2 shows the process of variable screening. Figure 2-a and -b correspond to the results of variable screening using LASSO and GradientBoost RFE methods, respectively. The AUC of the model output changes with the change of the model input variables. From Fig. 2-c, it can be found that the number of variables when LASSO and GradientBoost RFE achieve the best AUC is 32 and 12 respectively, and merging them can get a common 10 variables. Figure 2-d illustrates the spearman correlation between the 10 variables
