Survival of Extremely Preterm Neonates in a Resource-limited Setting
Background: Preterm birth is a major contributor to neonatal and under-five mortality, and births at lower gestational ages (GA) contribute more to these statistics. Most developed countries have succeeded in improving survival at extremes of GA, while most developing countries like Nigeria still lag behind.

We study the dynamic harvest incentives faced by a renewable resource harvester with insecure property rights. A resource ‘‘concession’’ is granted for a fixed duration, after which it is renewed (with a known probability) only if a target stock is achieved. Despite the insecurity of this property right, simple concessions contracts can be designed to induce first best harvest trajectories. We ...
متن کاملLimited labels for unlimited data: active learning for speaker recognition
In this paper, we attempt to quantify the amount of labeled data necessary to build a state-of-the-art speaker recognition system. We begin by using i-vectors and the cosine similarity metric to represent an unlabeled set of utterances, then obtain labels from a noiseless oracle in the form of pairwise queries. Finally, we use the resulting speaker clusters to train a PLDA scoring function, whi...
