| Abstract | Background Perinatal mortality in Ethiopia is the highest in Africa, with 68 per 1000 pregnancies intrapartum deaths. It is mainly associated with home delivery, which contributes to more than 75% of perinatal deaths. Financial constraints significantly impact timely access to maternal health care. Financial incentives, such as health insurance, may address the demand- and supply-side factors. This study, hence, aims to predict perinatal mortality based on maternal health status and health insurance service using homogeneous ensemble machine learning methods. Methods The data was collected from the Ethiopian demographic health survey from 2011 to 2019 G.C. The data were pre-processed to get quality data that are suitable for the homogenous ensemble machine-learning algorithms to develop a model that predicts perinatal mortality. We have applied filter (chi-square and mutual information) and wrapper (sequential forward and sequential backward) feature selection methods. After selecting all the relevant features, we developed a predictive model using cat boost, random forest, and gradient boosting algorithms and evaluated the model using both objective (accuracy, precision, recall, F1_score, ROC) and subjective (domain expert) based evaluation techniques. Results Perinatal mortality prediction models were developed using random forest, gradient boosting, and cat boost algorithms with the overall accuracy of 89.95%, 90.24%, and 82%, respectively. Risk factors of perinatal mortality were identified using feature importance analysis and relevant rules were extracted using the best performing model. Conclusions A prediction model that was developed using gradient boosting algorithms was selected for further use in the risk factor analysis, generating relevant rules, development of artifacts, and model deployment because it has registered better performance with 90.24% accuracy. The most determinant risk factors of perinatal mortality were identified using feature importance and some of them are community-based health insurance, mother's educational level, region and place of residence, age, wealth status, birth interval, preterm, smoking cigarette, anemia level, hemoglobin level, and marital status. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
