Scientific reports
The article aims to determine the sociodemographic factors associated with the level of trust in artificial intelligence (AI) based on cross-sectional research conducted in late 2023 and early 2024 on a sample of 2098 students in Poland (1088) and th...

Unlocking insights: Using machine learning to identify wasting and risk factors in Egyptian children under 5.

Nutrition (Burbank, Los Angeles County, Calif.)
INTRODUCTION: Malnutrition, particularly wasting, continues to be a significant public health issue among children under five years in Egypt. Despite global advancements in child health, the prevalence of wasting remains a critical concern. This stud...

Sociodemographic bias in clinical machine learning models: a scoping review of algorithmic bias instances and mechanisms.

Journal of clinical epidemiology
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Clinical machine learning (ML) technologies can sometimes be biased and their use could exacerbate health disparities. The extent to which bias is present, the groups who most frequently experience bias, and the mechanism t...

Mapping Spatiotemporal Disparities in Residential Electricity Inequality Using Machine Learning.

Environmental science & technology
The move toward electrification is critical for decarbonizing the energy sector but may exacerbate energy unaffordability without proper safeguards. Addressing this challenge requires capturing neighborhood-scale dynamics to uncover the blind spots i...
