    Markov influence diagrams: a graphical tool for cost-effectiveness analysis
    (Society for Medical Decision Making, 2017-01-11) Yebra, Mar; Bermejo, Iñigo; Palacios Alonso, Miguel Ángel; Arias Calleja, Manuel; Luque Gallego, Manuel; Pérez Martín, Jorge; Díez Vegas, Francisco Javier
    Markov influence diagrams (MIDs) are a new type of probabilistic graphical models that extend influence diagrams in the same way as Markov decision trees extend decision trees. They have been designed to build state-transition models, mainly in medicine, and perform cost-effectiveness analysis. Using a causal graph that may contain several variables per cycle, MIDs can model various features of the patient without multiplying the number of states; in particular, they can represent the history of the patient without using tunnel states. OpenMarkov, an open-source tool, allows the decision analyst to build and evaluate MIDs—including cost-effectiveness analysis and several types of deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analysis—with a graphical user interface, without writing any code. This way, MIDs can be used to easily build and evaluate complex models whose implementation as spreadsheets or decision trees would be cumbersome or unfeasible in practice. Furthermore, many problems that previously required discrete event simulation can be solved with MIDs, i.e., within the paradigm of state-transition models, in which many health economists feel more comfortable.

    Multi-input convolutional neural network for breast cancer detection using thermal images and clinical data
    (Elsevier, 2021-06) Sánchez Cauce, Raquel; Pérez Martín, Jorge; Luque Gallego, Manuel; Agencia Estatal de Investigación (España)
    Background and objective Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. While mammography is the most widely used screening technique for the early detection of this disease, it has several disadvantages such as radiation exposure or high economic cost. Recently, multiple authors studied the ability of machine learning algorithms for early diagnosis of breast cancer using thermal images, showing that thermography can be considered as a complementary test to mammography, or even as a primary test under certain circumstances. Moreover, although some personal and clinical data are considered risk factors of breast cancer, none of these works considered that information jointly with thermal images. Methods We propose a novel approach for early detection of breast cancer combining thermal images of different views with personal and clinical data, building a multi-input classification model which exploits the benefits of convolutional neural networks for image analysis. First, we searched for structures using only thermal images. Next, we added the clinical data as a new branch of each of these structures, aiming to improve its performance. Results We applied our method to the most widely used public database of breast thermal images, the Database for Mastology Research with Infrared Image. The best model achieves a 97% accuracy and an area under the ROC curve of 0.99, with a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 83%. Conclusions After studying the impact of thermal images and personal and clinical data on multi-input convolutional neural networks for breast cancer diagnosis, we conclude that: (1) adding the lateral views to the front view improves the performance of the classification model, and (2) including personal and clinical data helps the model to recognize sick patients.

    OpenMarkov, an Open-Source Tool for Probabilistic Graphical Models
    (International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2019) Arias Calleja, Manuel; Pérez Martín, Jorge; Luque Gallego, Manuel; Díez Vegas, Francisco Javier
    OpenMarkov is a Java open-source tool for creating and evaluating probabilistic graphical models, including Bayesian networks, influence diagrams, and some Markov models. With more than 100,000 lines of code, it offers some features for interactive learning, explanation of reasoning, and cost-effectiveness analysis, which are not available in any other tool. OpenMarkov has been used at universities, research centers, and large companies in more than 30 countries on four continents. Several models, some of them for real-world medical applications, built with OpenMarkov, are publicly available on Internet.

    Cost-effectiveness analysis with unordered decisions
    (Elsevier, 2021-07) Díez Vegas, Francisco Javier; Luque Gallego, Manuel; Arias Calleja, Manuel; Pérez Martín, Jorge
    Introduction Cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) is used increasingly in medicine to determine whether the health benefit of an intervention is worth the economic cost. Decision trees, the standard decision modeling technique for non-temporal domains, can only perform CEAs for very small problems. Influence diagrams can model much larger problems, but only when the decisions are totally ordered. Objective To develop a CEA method for problems with unordered or partially ordered decisions, such as finding the optimal sequence of tests for diagnosing a disease. Methods We explain how to model those problems using decision analysis networks (DANs), a new type of probabilistic graphical model, somewhat similar to Bayesian networks and influence diagrams. We present an algorithm for evaluating DANs with two criteria, cost and effectiveness, and perform some experiments to study its computational efficiency. We illustrate the representation framework and the algorithm using a hypothetical example involving two therapies and several tests and then present a DAN for a real-world problem, the mediastinal staging of non-small cell lung cancer. Results The evaluation of a DAN with two criteria, cost and effectiveness, returns a set of intervals for the willingness to pay, separated by incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs). The cost, the effectiveness, and the optimal intervention are specific for each interval, i.e., they depend on the willingness to pay. Conclusion Problems involving several unordered decisions can be modeled with DANs and evaluated in a reasonable amount of time. OpenMarkov, an open-source software tool developed by our research group, can be used to build the models and evaluate them using a graphical user interface.

    Teaching Probabilistic Graphical Models with OpenMarkov
    (MDPI, 2022-11-30) Díez Vegas, Francisco Javier; Arias Calleja, Manuel; Pérez Martín, Jorge; Luque Gallego, Manuel
    OpenMarkov is an open-source software tool for probabilistic graphical models. It has been developed especially for medicine, but has also been used to build applications in other fields and for tuition, in more than 30 countries. In this paper we explain how to use it as a pedagogical tool to teach the main concepts of Bayesian networks and influence diagrams, such as conditional dependence and independence, d-separation, Markov blankets, explaining away, optimal policies, expected utilities, etc., and some inference algorithms: logic sampling, likelihood weighting, and arc reversal. The facilities for learning Bayesian networks interactively can be used to illustrate step by step the performance of the two basic algorithms: search-and-score and PC.

    Cost-effectiveness analysis with probabilistic graphical models
    (Bayesian Network Modelling Association, 2021-06-30) Díez Vegas, Francisco Javier; Luque Gallego, Manuel; Arias Calleja, Manuel; Pérez Martín, Jorge
    The two formalisms most widely used for the representation and analysis of decision problems in medicine are decision trees and Markov flat models, which seriously limit the complexity of the problems that can be addressed. In contrast, probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) can represent the state and the evolution of the system (the patient) using much richer structures, but they are rarely used for economic evaluations in medicine given that, until recently, they could not perform cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA). In this paper we summarize the research done by our group, developing new types of PGMs and new algorithms for CEA and implementing them in OpenMarkov, an open-source tool especially designed for medicine.

    Cost-effectiveness analysis with decision analysis networks
    (Asociación Española para la Inteligencia Artificial, 2021-08-24) Díez Vegas, Francisco Javier; Luque Gallego, Manuel; Arias Calleja, Manuel; Pérez Martín, Jorge; Agencia Estatal de Investigación (España)
    Decision analysis networks (DANs) are a new type of probabilistic graphical model. Like influence diagrams (IDs), they are much more compact and easier to build than decision trees and can represent conditional independencies, but they can also represent problems involving partial orderings of the decisions (order asymmetry) and other types of asymmetry. Given that DANs can solve symmetric problems as easily and as efficiently as IDs, and are more appropriate for asymmetric problems—which include virtually all real-world problems—DANs might replace IDs as the standard type of probabilistic graphical model for decision analysis. In particular, they can be use to perform cost-effectiveness analyses (CEAs), which are used increasingly in medicine to determine whether the health benefit of an intervention is worth the economic cost.
