Efficient Core-Selecting Incentive Mechanism for Data Sharing in Federated Learning
Federated learning is a distributed machine learning system that uses participants’ data to train an improved global model. In federated learning, participants collaboratively train a global model, and after the training is completed, each participant receives that global model along with an incentive. Rational participants try to maximize their individual utility, and they will not input their high-quality data truthfully unless they are provide…
Burden of Malaria in Sao Tome and Principe, 1990–2019

Inequalities in socio-emotional development and positive parenting during childhood
Socio-emotional development (SED) is a critical dimension of early childhood development (ECD). However, little research has been conducted thus far regarding inequalities across family income status in children's SED and positive parenting scores in China, which has the second largest population of children in the world. Using nationally representative data from the China Family Panel Survey (CFPS), we addressed this knowledge gap by assessing t…
User–fee–removal improves equity of children’s health care utilization and reduces families’ financial burden
BACKGROUND: The impact of user-fee policies on the equity of health care utilization and households' financial burdens has remained largely unexplored in Latin American and the Caribbean, as well as in upper-middle-income countries. This paper assesses the short- and long-term impacts of Jamaica's user-fee-removal for children in 2007. METHODS: This study utilizes 14 rounds of data from the Jamaica Survey of Living Conditions (JSLC) for the perio…
Assessing levels and trends of child health inequality in 88 developing countries
BACKGROUND: Reducing child mortality was one of the Millennium Development Goals. In the current Sustainable Development Goals era, achieving equity is prioritized as a major aim. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to provide a comprehensive and updated picture of inequalities in child health intervention coverage and child health outcomes by wealth status, as well as their trends between 2000 and 2014. METHODS: Using data from Demographic Health Surveys…
An evaluation of systemic reforms of public hospitals
Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have been searching for effective strategies to reform their inefficient and wasteful public hospitals. Recently, China developed a model of systemic reforms called the Sanming model to address the inefficiency and waste at public hospitals. In this article, we explain and evaluate how the Sanming model reformed its 22 public hospitals in 2013 by simultaneously restructuring the hospital governance structu…
