Optimization of Genomic Classifiers for Clinical Deployment: Evaluation of Bayesian Optimization to Select Predictive Models of Acute Infection and In-Hospital Mortality [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Acute infection, if not rapidly and accurately detected, can lead to sepsis, organ failure and even death. Current detection of acute infection as well as assessment of a patient's severity of illness are imperfect. Characterization of a patient's immune response by quantifying expression levels of specific genes from blood represents a potentially ...

A Solution to the Ill-Conditioning of Gradient-Enhanced Covariance Matrices for Gaussian Processes [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Gaussian processes provide probabilistic surrogates for various applications including classification, uncertainty quantification, and optimization. Using a gradient-enhanced covariance matrix can be beneficial since it provides a more accurate surrogate relative to its gradient-free counterpart.

Patterns of age-specific mortality in children in endemic areas of sub-Saharan Africa. [PDF]
, 2007 Understanding of the age- and season- dependence of malaria mortality is an important prerequisite for epidemiologic models of malaria immunity. However, most studies of malaria mortality have aggregated their results into broad age groups and across ...

A new prediction diagnosis model of incomplete Kawasaki disease based on data mining with big data
Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.In this study, based on a medical big data information mining approach, we mined the independent risk factors for incomplete Kawasaki disease prediction by comparing incomplete Kawasaki disease with related febrile illnesses and constructed an auxiliary diagnostic model used to predict incomplete Kawasaki disease.
