Statistical models can greatly aid in medical decision making, as for example in the admission of critically ill patients to the Intensive Care Units (ICUs). These services have the mission of providing health care to patients in critical situations, which constitutes a challenge to hospital management, considering the heavy budgets that are necessary to maintain the quality of response. Therefore, decisions are made daily bearing in mind the effectiveness of the treatment versus its cost. In order to help the decision-making process metrics can be obtained, usually via Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) and Generalized Additive Models (GAMs). These are generally oriented towards the quantification of the risk of mortality and are characterized by a small number of variables, from which a score is extracted that reflects the patient's state of severity in addition to an in-hospital mortality estimate. Among the components of GLMs and GAMs which can be focused on in order to improve the quality of the models, the link function is highlighted. Recent work using models with flexible parametric link functions, namely with link functions belonging to the family of asymmetric functions of Aranda-Ordaz, showed an improvement in their performance. On the other hand, studies involving link functions belonging to the family of Czado functions are scarce. Using a Czado link function provides a greater flexibility, by it depending on three parameters, rather than the Aranda-Ordaz link function, which merely depends on one. Thus, a comparative analysis of the performance of both models referred (GLM, GAM), using the Aranda-Ordaz and Czado link functions, and considering the Logistic link function as a baseline was the primary line of work. The results presented themselves as inconclusive regarding the greater performance of either of the link functions, which can be related to the data used and not necessarily the actual performance of the models and link functions. Further studies should be carried using different data sets in order to truly access the performance of the models using both Czado and Aranda-Ordaz link functions.Sousa, Lisete Maria Ribeiro de, 1972-Geraldes, CarlosRepositório da Universidade de LisboaAzevedo, Maria Margarida Marques Campos de2021-08-26T09:47:58Z202120212021-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10451/49336TID:202931153enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-08T16:53:05Zoai:repositorio.ul.pt:10451/49336Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:01:00.356391Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
