Journal Reviewers' Workshop
Machine Learning for the Experienced Orthopaedic Reviewer: It May Not Be as Confusing as You Think

This presentation is a recorded capture from Reviewer Workshop on July 13, 2023 in Washington, DC at the AOSSM Annual Meeting.

Learning objectives:

1. Participants will gain an appreciation for the distinction between inference and prediction and how these concepts are related to the selection of analytic methods and presentation of results.

2. Participants will review the basics of regression and understand how newer machine learning algorithms are both similar and dissimilar from these more familiar techniques. 

3. Participants will consider how the review of research presenting the results of machine learning algorithms requires continued consideration of the surrounding clinical context.
