Support Vector Machine Recursive Feature Elimination (SVM-RFE), Least Absolute Shrinkage Selection Operator (LASSO) and Random Forest (RF) algorithms identified 4 CML diagnostic genes (HDC, SMPDL3A, IRF4 and AQP3), and the risk score model constructed by these genes improved the diagnostic accuracy. Here, AQP3 is linked to chronic myelogenous leukemia, BCR-ABL1 positive.
