Many existing fairness criteria for machine learning involve equalizing some metric across protected groups such as race or gender. However, practitioners trying to audit enforce group-based can easily face the problem of noisy biased group information. First, we study consequences naively relying on labels: provide an upper bound violations true G when are satisfied $\hat{G}$. Second, introduce two new approaches using robust optimization that, unlike naive approach only $\hat{G}$,...
Machine learning (ML) techniques are increasingly prevalent in education, from their use predicting student dropout to assisting university admissions and facilitating the rise of massive open online courses (MOOCs). Given rapid growth these novel uses, there is a pressing need investigate how ML support long-standing education principles goals. In this work, we shed light on complex landscape drawing qualitative insights interviews with experts. These comprise in-depth evaluations for...
Importance Glaucoma can develop following cataract removal in children. Objective To assess the cumulative incidence of glaucoma-related adverse events (defined as glaucoma or suspect) and factors associated with risk these first 5 years after lensectomy prior to 13 age. Design, Setting, Participants This cohort study used longitudinal registry data collected at enrollment annually for from 45 institutional 16 community sites. were children aged 12 younger least 1 office visit June 2012 July...
<h3>Importance</h3> Cataract is an important cause of visual impairment in children. Data from a large pediatric cataract surgery registry can provide real-world estimates outcomes and the 5-year cumulative incidence adverse events. <h3>Objective</h3> To assess acuity (VA), complications additional eye operations, refractive error 5 years after lensectomy among children younger than 13 years. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This prospective cohort study used data Pediatric Eye Disease...
Abstract Background Prior literature on disability has centered prevalence among older adults ages 65 and older, providing only limited insight to potential gender differences in mid-life. Midlife is, however, a critical time be examined, as it is typically the life course when large inequalities physical health first emerge. Methods Using Harmonized data files provided by Gateway Global Aging Data, we estimate of nationally representative 55–65 from 23 countries ( N = 79,465). We examine...
To (1) present a guide on how to perform optical coherence tomography (OCT) in carotid artery stenting (CAS), (2) highlight several instructive cases illustrating OCT-guidance as an interventional strategy, and (3) the largest case-series of OCT-guided CAS performed North America, demonstrating its feasibility imaging modality this setting.OCT is intravascular method that captures images with axial resolution 10 times higher than ultrasound. OCT has proven be useful coronary angiography may...
This paper summarizes and compares measures of chronic diseases medical conditions in the Health Retirement Study (HRS) its sister surveys from other countries: English Longitudinal Ageing (ELSA), Survey Health, Ageing, Europe (SHARE), Korean Aging (KLoSA), Japanese on (JSTAR), Chinese (CHARLS), India (LASI). The authors analyze discuss extent, to which these are comparable, methodological differences way information was collected for measures, implications secondary data analysis. is one a...
Abstract Backgrounds Bowel cancer is the second most common non‐cutaneous diagnosed in Australia among both genders. Colonoscopy withdrawal time of at least 6 min has been accepted as standard to achieve target polyp detection rate (PDR) and adenoma (ADR). A retrospective review was conducted Bundaberg Hospital evaluate relationship between colonoscopy against polyp, rates. Methods study carried out on patients who had colonoscopies performed 1 October 2016 30 September 2017 by general...
Glucocorticoids (GCs) and β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR) agonists improve asthma outcomes in most patients. GCs also modulate gene expression human airway smooth muscle (HASM), thereby attenuating inflammation hyperresponsiveness that define asthma. Our previous studies showed the pro-fibrotic cytokine, transforming growth factor- β1 (TGF-β1) increases phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) attenuates agonist-induced levels of intracellular cAMP. Decreased cAMP then diminishes β2 relaxation. In current...
<h3>Importance</h3> The Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group Cataract Registry provides a multicenter assessment of visual outcomes and complications after lensectomy for traumatic pediatric cataract. <h3>Objective</h3> To report acuity (VA) the cumulative proportion with strabismus, glaucoma, other ocular by 15 months cataract among children younger than 13 years at time surgery. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> From June 18, 2012, to July 8, 2015, 1266 eyes 994 from 33 eye care...
We demonstrate how easy it is for modern machine-learned systems to violate common deontological ethical principles and social norms such as "favor the less fortunate," "do not penalize good attributes." propose that in some cases can be incorporated into a model by adding shape constraints constrain respond only positively relevant inputs. analyze relationship between these act on individuals consequentialist group-based fairness goals of one-sided statistical parity equal opportunity.

Rapid progress in scalable, commoditized tools for data collection and processing has made it possible firms policymakers to employ ever more complex metrics as guides decision-making. These developments have highlighted a prevailing challenge -- deciding *which* compute. In particular, firm's ability compute wider range of existing does not address the problem *unknown unknowns*, which reflects informational limitations on part firm. To guide choice face this problem, we turn evaluated...
