Estimation of underreporting in Brazilian tuberculosis data, 2012-2014 [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Analysis of burden of underregistration in tuberculosis data in Brazil, from 2012 to 2014. Approches of Oliveira et al. (2020) and Stoner et al. (2019) are applied. The main focus is to illustrated how the approach of Oliveira et al. (2020) can be applied when the clustering structure is not previously available.

Empowering Tuberculosis Screening with Explainable Self-Supervised Deep Neural Networks [PDF]
2024 International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications
(ICMLA), Miami, FL, USA, 2024, pp. 794-797Tuberculosis persists as a global health crisis, especially in resource-limited populations and remote regions, with more than 10 million individuals newly infected annually. It stands as a stark symbol of inequity in public health. Tuberculosis impacts roughly a quarter of the global populace, with the majority of cases concentrated in eight countries,

Automatic semantic segmentation for prediction of tuberculosis using lens-free microscopy images [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Tuberculosis (TB), caused by a germ called Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is one of the most serious public health problems in Peru and the world. The development of this project seeks to facilitate and automate the diagnosis of tuberculosis by the MODS method and using lens-free microscopy, due they are easier to calibrate and easier to use (by untrained

Optimal control strategies for tuberculosis treatment: a case study in Angola [PDF]
Numer. Algebra Control Optim. 2 (2012), no. 3, 601--617, 2012 We apply optimal control theory to a tuberculosis model given by a system of ordinary differential equations. Optimal control strategies are proposed to minimize the cost of interventions. Numerical simulations are given using data from Angola.
