A Machine Learning Model for Evaluating Imported Disease Screening Strategies in Immigrant Populations.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene
Given the high prevalence of imported diseases in immigrant populations, it has postulated the need to establish screening programs that allow their early diagnosis and treatment. We present a mathematical model based on machine learning methodologie...

Development and evaluation of a machine learning-based point-of-care screening tool for genetic syndromes in children: a multinational retrospective study.

The Lancet. Digital health
BACKGROUND: Delays in the diagnosis of genetic syndromes are common, particularly in low and middle-income countries with limited access to genetic screening services. We, therefore, aimed to develop and evaluate a machine learning-based screening te...

Revisiting the out of Africa event with a deep-learning approach.

American journal of human genetics
Anatomically modern humans evolved around 300 thousand years ago in Africa. They started to appear in the fossil record outside of Africa as early as 100 thousand years ago, although other hominins existed throughout Eurasia much earlier. Recently, s...

Mapping artisanal and small-scale mines at large scale from space with deep learning.

PloS one
Artisanal and small-scale mines (asm) are on the rise. They represent a crucial source of wealth for numerous communities but are rarely monitored or regulated. The main reason being the unavailability of reliable information on the precise location ...

Multi-task machine learning improves multi-seasonal prediction of the Indian Ocean Dipole.

Nature communications
As one of the most predominant interannual variabilities, the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) exerts great socio-economic impacts globally, especially on Asia, Africa, and Australia. While enormous efforts have been made since its discovery to improve both...

Harnessing the power of AI: Advanced deep learning models optimization for accurate SARS-CoV-2 forecasting.

PloS one
The pandemic has significantly affected many countries including the USA, UK, Asia, the Middle East and Africa region, and many other countries. Similarly, it has substantially affected Malaysia, making it crucial to develop efficient and precise for...

Deep learning approaches to landmark detection in tsetse wing images.

PLoS computational biology
Morphometric analysis of wings has been suggested for identifying and controlling isolated populations of tsetse (Glossina spp), vectors of human and animal trypanosomiasis in Africa. Single-wing images were captured from an extensive data set of fie...

Development potential of nanoenabled agriculture projected using machine learning.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
The controllability and targeting of nanoparticles (NPs) offer solutions for precise and sustainable agriculture. However, the development potential of nanoenabled agriculture remains unknown. Here, we build an NP-plant database containing 1,174 data...
