Enhancing the Lasso Approach for Developing a Survival Prediction Model Based on Gene Expression Data

In the past decade, researchers in oncology have sought to develop survival prediction models using gene expression data. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (lasso) has been widely used to select genes that truly correlated with a patient’s survival. The lasso selects genes for pred...
