A new research paper proposes a method to correct machine learning models that learn counterintuitive relationships, specifically in the context of bladder cancer recurrence prediction. The study found that an unconstrained XGBoost model incorrectly associated higher tumor stage and carcinoma in situ with lower recurrence risk. By implementing monotonic constraints derived from established clinical guidelines, researchers were able to eliminate these inversions without sacrificing predictive performance, suggesting this approach should be standard practice before clinical deployment.
