Fig. 3From: Development of a simplified model and nomogram in preoperative diagnosis of pediatric chronic cholangitis with pancreaticobiliary maljunction using clinical variables and MRI radiomicsRadiomics feature selection using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model. a Tuning parameter (λ) selection in LASSO model used tenfold cross-validation via minimum criterion. The optimal values of the LASSO tuning parameter (λ) are indicated by the dotted vertical lines, and a value λ of 0.064 with log(λ) = − 2.743 was selected. b LASSO coefficient profiles of the 1056 radiomics features. A coefficient profile plot was produced versus the log (λ) sequence. The dotted vertical line was drawn at the value selected using tenfold cross-validation, in which the selected λ resulted in eight nonzero coefficients. c The most predictive subset of feature was chosen and the corresponding coefficients were evaluated in the training cohortBack to article page
