Identifying determinants of under-5 mortality in Bangladesh: A machine learning approach with BDHS 2022 data.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Under-5 mortality in Bangladesh remains a critical indicator of public health and socio-economic development. Traditional methods often struggle to capture the complex, non-linear relationships influencing under-5 mortality. This study le...

Undesired nexus poor health status of child under-five: A case study of Pakistan.

PloS one
Childhood morbidity and mortality are key indicators of human development, particularly reflecting poor health conditions in children. In Pakistan, child mortality remains a serious problem despite efforts to reduce it. One factor that may be associa...

Exploring the achievements and forecasting of SDG 3 using machine learning algorithms: Bangladesh perspective.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Sustainable Development Goal 3 (SDG 3), focusing on ensuring healthy lives and well-being for all, holds global significance and is particularly vital for Bangladesh. Neonatal Mortality Rate (NMR), Under-5 Mortality Rate (U5MR), Maternal ...

Analyzing and forecasting under-5 mortality trends in Bangladesh using machine learning techniques.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Under-5 mortality remains a critical social indicator of a country's development and economic sustainability, particularly in developing nations like Bangladesh. This study employs machine learning models, including Linear Regression, Rid...

Explore the factors related to the death of offspring under age five and appraise the hazard of child mortality using machine learning techniques in Bangladesh.

BMC public health
BACKGROUND: Child mortality is a reliable and significant indicator of a nation's health. Although the child mortality rate in Bangladesh is declining over time, it still needs to drop even more in order to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG...

Exploring the determinants of under-five mortality and morbidity from infectious diseases in Cambodia-a traditional and machine learning approach.

Scientific reports
Cambodia has made progress in reducing the under-five mortality rate and burden of infectious diseases among children over the last decades. However the determinants of child mortality and morbidity in Cambodia is not well understood, and no recent a...

Deploying Machine Learning Models Using Progressive Web Applications: Implementation Using a Neural Network Prediction Model for Pneumonia Related Child Mortality in The Gambia.

Frontiers in public health
BACKGROUND: Translating research outputs into practical tools for medical practitioners is a neglected area and could have a substantial impact. One of the barriers to implementing artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications i...

Use of a deep learning and random forest approach to track changes in the predictive nature of socioeconomic drivers of under-5 mortality rates in sub-Saharan Africa.

BMJ open
OBJECTIVES: We used machine learning algorithms to track how the ranks of importance and the survival outcome of four socioeconomic determinants (place of residence, mother's level of education, wealth index and sex of the child) of under-5 mortality...

Development of a machine learning model for predicting pediatric mortality in the early stages of intensive care unit admission.

Scientific reports
The aim of this study was to develop a predictive model of pediatric mortality in the early stages of intensive care unit (ICU) admission using machine learning. Patients less than 18 years old who were admitted to ICUs at four tertiary referral hosp...

Efficacy of deep learning methods for predicting under-five mortality in 34 low-income and middle-income countries.

BMJ open
OBJECTIVES: To explore the efficacy of machine learning (ML) techniques in predicting under-five mortality (U5M) in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) and to identify significant predictors of U5M.
