Background: While sub-microscopic malarial infections are frequent and potentially deleterious during pregnancy, routine molecular detection is still not feasible. This study aimed to assess the performance of a Histidine Rich Protein 2 (HRP2)-based ultrasensitive rapid diagnostic test (uRDT, Alere Malaria Ag Pf) for the detection of infections of...

Full-text available
Recent studies have highlighted the importance of local environmental factors to determine the fine-scale heterogeneity of malaria transmission and exposure to the vector. In this work, we compare a classical GLM model with backward selection with different versions of an automatic LASSO-based algorithm with 2-level cross-validation aiming to build...
Article
Full-text available
Malaria remains endemic in tropical areas, especially in Africa. For the evaluation of new tools and to further ourunderstanding of host-parasite interactions, knowing the environmental risk of transmission-even at a very local scale-isessential. The aim of this study was to assess how malaria transmission is influenced and can be predicted by loca...
Article
This paper deals with prediction of anopheles number using environmental and climate variables. The variables selection is performed by an automatic machine learning method based on Lasso and stratified two levels cross validation. Selected variables are debiased while the predictionis generated by simple GLM (Generalized linear model). Finally, th...
Article
This paper deals with prediction of anopheles number, the main vector of malaria risk, using environmental and climate variables. The variables selection is based on an automatic machine learning method using regression trees, and random forests combined with stratified two levels cross validation. The minimum threshold of variables importance is a...
Article
Full-text available
In life sciences, the experts generally use empirical knowledge to recode variables, choose interactions and perform selection by classical approach. The aim of this work is to perform automatic learning algorithm for variables selection which can lead to know if experts can be help in they decision or simply replaced by the machine and improve the...
Article
Full-text available
In this study, we propose an automatic learning method for variables selection based on Lasso in epidemiology context. One of the aim of this approach is to overcome the pretreatment of experts in medicine and epidemiology on collected data. These pretreatment consist in recoding some variables and to choose some interactions based on expertise. Th...

This work deals with prediction of anopheles number using environmental and climate variables. The variables selection is performed by GLMM (Generalized linear mixed model) combined with the Lasso method and simple cross validation. Selected variables are debiased while the prediction is generated by simple GLMM. Finally, the results reveal to be q...
