Background: Postoperative recurrence of oral cancer is an important factor affecting the prognosis of patients. Artificial intelligence is used to establish a machine learning model to predict the risk of postoperative recurrence of oral cancer.
Methods: The information of 387 patients with postoperative oral cancer were collected to establish the multilayer perceptron (MLP) model. The comprehensive variable model was compared with the characteristic variable model, and the MLP model was compared with other models to evaluate the sensitivity of different models in the prediction of postoperative recurrence of oral cancer.
Results: The overall performance of the MLP model under comprehensive variable input was the best.
Conclusion: The MLP model has good sensitivity to predict postoperative recurrence of oral cancer, and the predictive model with variable input training is better than that with characteristic variable input.
Keywords: artificial intelligence; machine learning; multilayer perceptron; oral cancer; postoperative recurrence.
