0 Achieved AUC in External Validation for RFC-S Model

The RFC-S model demonstrated exceptional performance, achieving an AUC of 0.9963 on the training set, 0.9893 on the test set, and a remarkable 0.9979 on the external validation set. This significantly surpasses conventional methods, providing a robust tool for early APL identification.

N_APL_Ratio_YZ Most Influential Scattergram Feature for APL Prediction

SHAP analysis confirmed that the proportion of APL-related particles in the WNB channel's FS-FL perspective (N_APL_Ratio_YZ) was the most influential predictor. This highlights the model's ability to leverage unique morphological information from scattergrams, which is not captured by standard blood parameters.

Feature RFC-S Model (Proposed) RFC-C Model (Conventional)
Key Features Utilized
  • ✓ Deep learning-derived scattergram features (N_APL_Ratio_YZ, D_APL_Ratio_XY)
  • ✓ Routine blood parameters
  • ✓ Only routine blood parameters (PCT, PLT)
Diagnostic Accuracy (AUC)
  • ✓ External Validation AUC: 0.9979
  • ✓ External Validation AUC: 0.9586 (Inferior)
Interpretability
  • ✓ High, through SHAP analysis of specific scattergram regions
  • ✓ Moderate, limited by non-specific blood markers
Resource Requirements
  • ✓ Low, no additional tests needed beyond routine blood work
  • ✓ Low, but less accurate for early detection

The RFC-S model significantly outperforms conventional approaches (like the RFC-C model, which relies solely on routine blood parameters). Its ability to extract and utilize novel scattergram features provides a distinct advantage in capturing APL-specific morphological patterns, leading to superior diagnostic accuracy, particularly in resource-limited settings.
