Researchers have developed a new evaluation framework for machine learning models predicting kidney transplant outcomes. This framework, termed 'paired recipient-based evaluation,' compares graft survival between two recipients who received kidneys from the same donor. The study found that various survival prediction models, including deep learning approaches, achieved approximately 60% accuracy using this method. The researchers also highlighted the limitations of the traditional concordance index (C-index) and proposed their new metric as more clinically relevant for real-world donor-recipient matching. AI
