NeoAI 1.0: Machine learning-based paradigm for prediction of neonatal and infant risk of death.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: The Neonatal mortality rate in the United States is 3.8 deaths per 1000 live births, which is comparably higher than other nations.

Machine Learning Models for Predicting Neonatal Mortality: A Systematic Review.

Neonatology
INTRODUCTION: Approximately 7,000 newborns die every day, accounting for almost half of child deaths under 5 years of age. Deciphering which neonates are at increased risk for mortality can have an important global impact. As such, integrating high c...

Identifying Factors Associated with Neonatal Mortality in Sub-Saharan Africa using Machine Learning.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
This study aimed at identifying the factors associated with neonatal mortality. We analyzed the Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) datasets from 10 Sub-Saharan countries. For each survey, we trained machine learning models to identify women who had ...

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...

Estimating risk of severe neonatal morbidity in preterm births under 32 weeks of gestation.

The journal of maternal-fetal & neonatal medicine : the official journal of the European Association of Perinatal Medicine, the Federation of Asia and Oceania Perinatal Societies, the International Society of Perinatal Obstetricians
A large recent study analyzed the relationship between multiple factors and neonatal outcome and in preterm births. Study variables included the reason for admission, indication for delivery, optimal steroid use, gestational age, and other potential...

Exploring Ensemble Learning Techniques for Infant Mortality Prediction: A Technical Analysis of XGBoost Stacking AdaBoost and Bagging Models.

Birth defects research
BACKGROUND: Infant mortality remains a critical public health issue, reflecting the overall health and well-being of a population. Accurate prediction of infant mortality is crucial, as it enables healthcare providers to identify at-risk populations ...

Characterizing Infant Mortality Using Data Mining - A Case Study in Two Brazilian States - Santa Catarina and Amapá.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Infant mortality is characterized by the death of young children under the age of one, and it is an issue affecting millions of children in the world. The objective of this article is to employ concepts of knowledge discovery in databases, specifical...

Postoperative neonatal mortality prediction using superlearning.

The Journal of surgical research
BACKGROUND: The variable risks associated with neonatal surgery present a challenge to accurate mortality prediction. We aimed to apply superlearning, an ensemble machine learning method, to the prediction of 30-day neonatal postoperative mortality.
