Machine learning based prediction of warfarin optimal dosing for African American patients

This paper proposes a new model for predicting the optimal warfarin dosing for African American patients. The prediction model is created using the multivariable regression method. The accuracy of dosing prediction is directly related to patient's safety. We show that the proposed model has better accuracy compare to all other available prediction methods for optimal dosing of warfarin.
