Discriminating head trauma outcomes using machine learning and genomics

This study illustrates how ML methods in combination with WES data have the potential to predict severe or prolonged responses to head traum a from healthy recovery.Key messagesLinear association analysis has been inconclusive in concussion genetics.Non-linear methods as boosted trees can offer better insights in small samples.Strong discrimination trends can be achieved from exome data of cases and controls.
