ibd-bmlt

This project contains the R scripts and the data to reproduce the statistical analysis of the study "Role of Genetic Factors in Characterizing Extra-Intestinal Manifestations in Crohn’s Disease Patients: Are Bayesian Machine-Learning Methods Improving Outcome Predictions?".

Before running the analysis, please install the following R packages:

install.packages(
  c("tidyverse", "doParallel", "caret", "glue", "bnlearn",
    "bartMachine", "graph"), dependencies = TRUE
)

The project is organized as follows:

• The file ibd_bmlt.Rproj is the file of the Rstudio project.

• The folder data contains the following files:

  • sim_data.R, which contains the R script used to simulate the data

  • simulated_db.rda, which is the file that contains the simulated dataset used to reproduce the analyses

• The folder analyses contains the following files:

  • nb_analyses.R, which contains the R script used to run the analyses with Naive-Bayes models

  • bn_analyses.R, which contains the R script used to run the analyses with Bayesian Network models

  • bart_analyses.R, which contains the R script used to run the analyses with BART models

  • misc_functions.R, which contains the R script with various functions used during the analyses
