abstract = {Suicide is the third leading cause of death for individuals
between 15 and 19 years of age. The high suicide mortality
rate and limited prior success in identifying neuroimaging
biomarkers indicate that it is crucial to improve the
accuracy of clinical neural signatures underlying suicide
risk. The current study implements machine-learning (ML)
algorithms to examine structural brain alterations in
adolescents that can discriminate individuals with suicide
risk from typically developing (TD) adolescents at the
individual level. Structural MRI data were collected from 79
adolescents who demonstrated clinical levels of suicide risk
and 79 demographically matched TD adolescents.
Region-specific cortical/subcortical volume (CV/SCV) was
evaluated following whole-brain parcellation into 1000
cortical and 12 subcortical regions. CV/SCV parameters were
used as inputs for feature selection and three ML algorithms
(i.e., support vector machine [SVM], K-nearest neighbors,
and ensemble) to classify adolescents at suicide risk from
TD adolescents. The highest classification accuracy of
$74.79\%$ (with $sensitivity = 75.90\%,$
$specificity = 74.07\%,$ and area under the receiver
operating characteristic $curve = 87.18\%)$ was obtained
for CV/SCV data using the SVM classifier. Identified
bilateral regions that contributed to the classification
mainly included reduced CV within the frontal and temporal
cortices but increased volume within the cuneus/precuneus
for adolescents at suicide risk relative to TD adolescents.
The current data demonstrate an unbiased region-specific ML
framework to effectively assess the structural biomarkers of
suicide risk. Future studies with larger sample sizes and
the inclusion of clinical controls and independent
validation data sets are needed to confirm our findings.},
