Semi-supervised machine learning method for predicting homogeneous ancestry groups to assess Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in diverse whole-genome sequencing studies.

American journal of human genetics
Large-scale, multi-ethnic whole-genome sequencing (WGS) studies, such as the National Human Genome Research Institute Genome Sequencing Program's Centers for Common Disease Genomics (CCDG), play an important role in increasing diversity for genetic r...

Rule-based natural language processing to examine variation in worsening heart failure hospitalizations by age, sex, race and ethnicity, and left ventricular ejection fraction.

American heart journal
BACKGROUND: Prior studies characterizing worsening heart failure events (WHFE) have been limited in using structured healthcare data from hospitalizations, and with little exploration of sociodemographic variation. The current study examined the impa...

Using machine learning to determine the nationalities of the fastest 100-mile ultra-marathoners and identify top racing events.

PloS one
The present study intended to determine the nationality of the fastest 100-mile ultra-marathoners and the country/events where the fastest 100-mile races are held. A machine learning model based on the XG Boost algorithm was built to predict the runn...

Evaluation of an AI algorithm trained on an ethnically diverse dataset to screen a previously unseen population for diabetic retinopathy.

Indian journal of ophthalmology
PURPOSE: This study aimed to determine the generalizability of an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm trained on an ethnically diverse dataset to screen for referable diabetic retinopathy (RDR) in the Armenian population unseen during AI developme...

Ancestry analysis using a self-developed 56 AIM-InDel loci and machine learning methods.

Forensic science international
Insertion/deletion (InDel) polymorphisms can be used as one of the ancestry-informative markers in ancestry analysis. In this study, a self-developed panel consisting of 56 ancestry-informative InDels was used to investigate the genetic structures an...

Different machine learning methods based on maxillary sinus in sex estimation for northwestern Chinese Han population.

International journal of legal medicine
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Sex estimation is a critical aspect of forensic expertise. Some special anatomical structures, such as the maxillary sinus, can still maintain integrity in harsh environmental conditions and may be served as a basis for sex es...

The Intersections of COVID-19, HIV, and Race/Ethnicity: Machine Learning Methods to Identify and Model Risk Factors for Severe COVID-19 in a Large U.S. National Dataset.

AIDS and behavior
We investigate risk factors for severe COVID-19 in persons living with HIV (PWH), including among racialized PWH, using the U.S. population-sampled National COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C) data released from January 1, 2020 to October 10, 2022. We d...

Validation of a deep learning system for the detection of diabetic retinopathy in Indigenous Australians.

The British journal of ophthalmology
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Deep learning systems (DLSs) for diabetic retinopathy (DR) detection show promising results but can underperform in racial and ethnic minority groups, therefore external validation within these populations is critical for health equi...

Conversational assessment using artificial intelligence is as clinically useful as depression scales and preferred by users.

Journal of affective disorders
BACKGROUND: Depression is prevalent, chronic, and burdensome. Due to limited screening access, depression often remains undiagnosed. Artificial intelligence (AI) models based on spoken responses to interview questions may offer an effective, efficien...

Auditing Learned Associations in Deep Learning Approaches to Extract Race and Ethnicity from Clinical Text.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Complete and accurate race and ethnicity (RE) patient information is important for many areas of biomedical informatics research, such as defining and characterizing cohorts, performing quality assessments, and identifying health inequities. Patient-...
