Identifying Key Target Audiences for Public Health Campaigns: Leveraging Machine Learning in the Case of Hookah Tobacco Smoking.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Hookah tobacco smoking (HTS) is a particularly important issue for public health professionals to address owing to its prevalence and deleterious health effects. Social media sites can be a valuable tool for public health officials to con...

Complementing the power of deep learning with statistical model fusion: Probabilistic forecasting of influenza in Dallas County, Texas, USA.

Epidemics
Influenza is one of the main causes of death, not only in the USA but worldwide. Its significant economic and public health impacts necessitate development of accurate and efficient algorithms for forecasting of any upcoming influenza outbreaks. Most...

A population health perspective on artificial intelligence.

Healthcare management forum
The burgeoning field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to profoundly impact the public's health. Yet, to make the most of this opportunity, decision-makers must understand AI concepts. In this article, we describe approaches and field...

Machine learning to refine decision making within a syndromic surveillance service.

BMC public health
BACKGROUND: Worldwide, syndromic surveillance is increasingly used for improved and timely situational awareness and early identification of public health threats. Syndromic data streams are fed into detection algorithms, which produce statistical al...
