Abstract: This paper performs the survival analysis for Hepatocellular carcinoma using two different algorithms-Random Forest model and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) model. The models were used to perform binary classification. The patients were classified into two classes based on survival time > 10 months and <= 10 months. Results showed that the classification accuracy and misclassification rate of the random forest model was 0.66 and 0.34 respectively. The classification accuracy and misclassification rate of Extreme gradient boost model 0.61 and 0.39 respectively. The Random forest model performed better during testing.
Keyword: Survival Analysis, Hepatocellular Carcinoma, Random Forest, Extreme Gradient Boosting.
