Machine learning models for minimizing aggravation in work-related musculoskeletal disorders among slaughterhouse workers.

Work (Reading, Mass.)
BackgroundWork-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are common in Brazilian slaughterhouses. The repetitive and strenuous nature of meat processing, especially in slaughterhouses, makes employees highly susceptible to developing WMSDs. Prolonged...

An investigation into the impact of temporality on COVID-19 infection and mortality predictions: new perspective based on Shapley Values.

BMC medical research methodology
INTRODUCTION: Machine learning models have been employed to predict COVID-19 infections and mortality, but many models were built on training and testing sets from different periods. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of temporali...

Combining machine learning and dynamic system techniques to early detection of respiratory outbreaks in routinely collected primary healthcare records.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: Methods that enable early outbreak detection represent powerful tools in epidemiological surveillance, allowing adequate planning and timely response to disease surges. Syndromic surveillance data collected from primary healthcare encount...

AI models uncover factors influencing scorpionism in Northern Brazil.

Toxicon : official journal of the International Society on Toxinology
Envenomation by scorpion stings is a serious public health problem in tropical regions of the world. In Brazil's Northern region, there has been a significant increase in cases over the last decade, accompanied by a rise in the fatality rate. Climate...

Statistical analysis and prediction via neural networks of water quality in the Middle Paraíba do Sul (Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil) region in the period (2012-2022).

Environmental science and pollution research international
The aim of this study is to accurately predict the water quality at these points over a decade through the combined use of statistical tools and artificial intelligence. This study brings the innovative use of neural networks implemented with the GRN...

Evaluating how different balancing data techniques impact on prediction of premature birth using machine learning models.

PloS one
Premature birth can be defined as birth before 37 weeks of gestation, which is a significant global health issue, being the main cause for neonatal deaths. In this work, we evaluate machine learning models for predicting premature birth using Brazili...

Machine learning algorithms applied to the diagnosis of COVID-19 based on epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory data.

Jornal brasileiro de pneumologia : publicacao oficial da Sociedade Brasileira de Pneumologia e Tisilogia
OBJECTIVE: To predict COVID-19 in hospitalized patients with SARS in a city in southern Brazil by using machine learning algorithms.

Sentinel-2 imagery coupled with machine learning to modelling water turbidity in the Doce River Basin, Brazil.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Remote sensing and machine learning are techniques that can be used to monitor water quality properties, surpassing the limitations of the conventional techniques. Turbidity is an important water quality property directly influenced by the Fundão dam...
