Comparison of Machine Learning Classifiers for Predicting Reported Antibiotic Treatment After Recent Fever/Cough Among Under‐Five Children: A Pooled Analysis of DHS Data From 64 LMICs

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2026.
Using pooled Demographic and Health Survey data from 64 LMICs, six machine learning and logistic regression models showed only modest ability to predict caregiver‐reported antibiotic treatment after childhood fever or cough.
