Predicting soft tissue changes after orthognathic surgery: The sparse partial least squares method.

CONCLUSIONS: The prediction method proposed in the present study was accurate for a wide range of orthognathic surgeries. A reduced set of input variables could be selected through the SPLS method while simultaneously maintaining a prediction level that was as accurate as that of the original PLS prediction model.
