Using natural language processing and machine learning to classify health literacy from secure messages: The ECLIPPSE study.

PloS one
Limited health literacy is a barrier to optimal healthcare delivery and outcomes. Current measures requiring patients to self-report limitations are time-consuming and may be considered intrusive by some. This makes widespread classification of patie...

Deep Learning Algorithms with Demographic Information Help to Detect Tuberculosis in Chest Radiographs in Annual Workers' Health Examination Data.

International journal of environmental research and public health
We aimed to use deep learning to detect tuberculosis in chest radiographs in annual workers' health examination data and compare the performances of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based on images only (I-CNN) and CNNs including demographic vari...

Predominant polarity classification and associated clinical variables in bipolar disorder: A machine learning approach.

Journal of affective disorders
BACKGROUND: Bipolar disorder (BD) is a severe psychiatric disorder characterized by periodic episodes of manic and depressive symptomatology. Predominant polarity (PP) appears to be an important specifier of BD. The present study employed machine lea...

JOURNAL CLUB: Use of Gradient Boosting Machine Learning to Predict Patient Outcome in Acute Ischemic Stroke on the Basis of Imaging, Demographic, and Clinical Information.

AJR. American journal of roentgenology
OBJECTIVE: When treatment decisions are being made for patients with acute ischemic stroke, timely and accurate outcome prediction plays an important role. The optimal rehabilitation strategy also relies on long-term outcome predictions. The decision...

Predictive models for charitable giving using machine learning techniques.

PloS one
Private giving represents more than three fourths of all U.S. charitable donations, about 2% of total Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Private giving is a significant factor in funding the nonprofit sector of the U.S. economy, which accounts for more th...

Demographic and Symptomatic Features of Voice Disorders and Their Potential Application in Classification Using Machine Learning Algorithms.

Folia phoniatrica et logopaedica : official organ of the International Association of Logopedics and Phoniatrics (IALP)
BACKGROUND: Studies have used questionnaires of dysphonic symptoms to screen voice disorders. This study investigated whether the differential presentation of demographic and symptomatic features can be applied to computerized classification.

Residential scene classification for gridded population sampling in developing countries using deep convolutional neural networks on satellite imagery.

International journal of health geographics
BACKGROUND: Conducting surveys in low- and middle-income countries is often challenging because many areas lack a complete sampling frame, have outdated census information, or have limited data available for designing and selecting a representative s...

Spatial extreme learning machines: An application on prediction of disease counts.

Statistical methods in medical research
Extreme learning machines have gained a lot of attention by the machine learning community because of its interesting properties and computational advantages. With the increase in collection of information nowadays, many sources of data have missing ...

Multi-Site Diagnostic Classification of Schizophrenia Using Discriminant Deep Learning with Functional Connectivity MRI.

EBioMedicine
BACKGROUND: A lack of a sufficiently large sample at single sites causes poor generalizability in automatic diagnosis classification of heterogeneous psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia based on brain imaging scans. Advanced deep learning met...

Robust Machine Learning Variable Importance Analyses of Medical Conditions for Health Care Spending.

Health services research
OBJECTIVE: To propose nonparametric double robust machine learning in variable importance analyses of medical conditions for health spending.
