Recent studies have suggested that due to climate change, the number of wildfires across the globe have been increasing and continue to grow even more. The recent massive wildfires, which hit Australia during the 2019–2020 summer season, raised questions to what extent the risk of wildfires can be linked to various climate, environmental, topographical, and social factors and how to predict fire occurrences to take preventive measures. Hence, the main objective of this study was to develop an automatized and cloud-based workflow for generating a training dataset of fire events at a continental level using freely available remote sensing data with a reasonable computational expense for injecting into machine learning models. As a result, a data-driven model was set up in Google Earth Engine platform, which is publicly accessible and open for further adjustments. The training dataset was applied to different machine learning algorithms, i.e., Random Forest, Naïve Bayes, and Classification and Regression Tree. The findings show that Random Forest outperformed other algorithms and hence it was used further to explore the driving factors using variable importance analysis. The study indicates the probability of fire occurrences across Australia as well as identifies the potential driving factors of Australian wildfires for the 2019–2020 summer season. The methodical approach and achieved results and drawn conclusions can be of great importance to policymakers, environmentalists, and climate change researchers, among others.

Abstract Brazil is divided into five administrative regions, 27 federation units and 5,570 municipalities. Mato Grosso do Sul is one of the states located in the Midwest region and has 1.6 million km2 and a resident population of 2.8 million inhabitants, that is, it has an even lower demographic density than its region - only 7.8 inhabitants/km2. Mato Grosso do Sul has part of the Pantanal, a biome considered the largest continuous floodplain in the world, rich in biodiversity. For this reason, displacements for data collection in household surveys combine roads and rivers. In 2019, the Brazilian National Institute of Geography and Statistics (Istituto Nazionale di Statistica del Brasile) in partnership with the Ministry of Health launched the world's largest household sample survey, the National Health Survey (PNS-2019), in which part of its questions included the use of Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCAT, adult version), created by professors Barbara Starfield and Leiyu Shi in the 2000s. IBGE interviewers visited more than 100,000 households across the country. In Mato Grosso do Sul, more than 3,000 households were surveyed. In this work, we present the data collection instrument used by IBGE and its multiple analysis possibilities in the scope of primary health care, crossing the variables from other questionnaire modules in order to compare the results from Brazil with the state of Mato Grosso do Sul and its capital, Campo Grande. Developing a baseline and measuring the attributes of primary health care in each of the Brazilian states is another step towards giving health policy accountability, towards strong primary care. IBGE's experience in household surveys and innovation in data collection in primary care is an example for the world that yes, it is possible to develop statistically representative national sample surveys and make them perennial in their regular household surveys, by the time World Health Organization (WHO) discusses universal health coverage. Key messages Evaluation of primary care using an internationally validated instrument is possible on national bases with random household sample surveys. A questionnaire elaborated academically can be used as an instrument of public policy to evaluate nationwide health services.

Risk because of heart disease is increasing throughout the world. According to the World Health Organization report, the number of deaths because of heart disease is drastically increasing as compared to other diseases. Multiple factors are responsible for causing heart-related issues. Many approaches were suggested for prediction of heart disease, but none of them were satisfactory in clinical terms. Heart disease therapies and operations available are so costly, and following treatment, heart disease is also costly. This chapter provides a comprehensive survey of existing machine learning algorithms and presents comparison in terms of accuracy, and the authors have found that the random forest classifier is the most accurate model; hence, they are using random forest for further processes. Deployment of machine learning model using web application was done with the help of flask, HTML, GitHub, and Heroku servers. Webpages take input attributes from the users and gives the output regarding the patient heart condition with accuracy of having coronary heart disease in the next 10 years.

Resumo O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a influência da resolução espacial do modelo digital de elevação e da eficiência de modelos Random Forest sobre a predição dos teores de areia, argila e carbono orgânico, com uso de número reduzido de amostras. O trabalho foi realizado em área de Cerrado com diversidade litológica, no Estado do Mato Grosso do Sul, tendo-se utilizado atributos morfométricos, dados do sensor TM Landsat 5 e litologia como covariáveis preditoras. Dados da camada superficial (0,0-0,2 m) de 175 perfis de solos (0,009 perfis km-2) e de 26 covariáveis preditoras foram utilizados com resolução espacial de 30 (conjunto 1) e 90 m (conjunto 2). A análise realizada pelo Random Forest mostrou que as covariáveis de nível de base do canal de drenagem, da elevação e da litologia foram as mais importantes para explicar a variabilidade. A validação dos modelos apresentou similaridade entre os conjuntos quanto à predição de areia, argila e carbono orgânico, o que explica os seguintes valores de variabilidade espacial, respectivamente: 44, 40 e 33%, para a resolução de 30 m; e de 45, 46 e 33%, para a resolução de 90 m. A resolução espacial das covariáveis preditoras tem pouca influência sobre a predição dos atributos, e a abordagem por Random Forest apresenta potencial de utilização para estimar atributos do solo.

BACKGROUND Linguistic accessibility has important impact on the reception and utilization of translated health resources among multicultural and multilingual populations. Linguistic understandability of health translation has been under-studied. OBJECTIVE Our study aimed to develop novel machine learning models for the study of the linguistic accessibility of health translations comparing Chinese translations of the World Health Organization health materials with original Chinese health resources developed by the Chinese health authorities. METHODS Using natural language processing tools for the assessment of the readability of Chinese materials, we explored and compared the readability of Chinese health translations from the World Health Organization with original Chinese materials from China Centre for Disease Control and Prevention. RESULTS Pairwise adjusted t test showed that three new machine learning models achieved statistically significant improvement over the baseline logistic regression in terms of AUC: C5.0 decision tree (p=0.000, 95% CI: -0.249, -0.152), random forest (p=0.000, 95% CI: 0.139, 0.239) and XGBoost Tree (p=0.000, 95% CI: 0.099, 0.193). There was however no significant difference between C5.0 decision tree and random forest (p=0.513). Extreme gradient boost tree was the best model having achieved statistically significant improvement over the C5.0 model (p=0.003) and the Random Forest model (p=0.006) at the adjusted Bonferroni p value at 0.008. CONCLUSIONS The development of machine learning algorithms significantly improved the accuracy and reliability of current approaches to the evaluation of the linguistic accessibility of Chinese health information, especially Chinese health translations in relation to original health resources. Although the new algorithms developed were based on Chinese health resources, they can be adapted for other languages to advance current research in accessible health translation, communication, and promotion.
