Uncovering Inequities: The Role of Social Determinants of Health in Hospitalized Adolescents and Young Adults With Heavy Menstrual Bleeding

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is a common condition among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) and is the leading cause of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in this population.

Uncertainty estimation of machine learning spatial precipitation predictions from satellite data

open access: yesMachine Learning: Science and Technology
Merging satellite and gauge data with machine learning produces high-resolution precipitation datasets, but uncertainty estimates are often missing. We addressed the gap of how to optimally provide such estimates by benchmarking six algorithms, mostly ...

Consistency of scoring rules: a reinvestigation of composition-consistency [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Game Theory, 2020
AbstractWe consider a collective choice problem in which the number of alternatives and the number of voters vary. Two fundamental axioms of consistency in such a setting, reinforcement and composition-consistency, are incompatible. We first observe that the latter implies four conditions each of which can be formulated as a consistency axiom on its ...
