Our Locality-specific Elastic-Net based Malaria Prediction System (LEMPS) achieves good generalization performance, both in magnitude and direction of the prediction, when tasked to predict monthly prevalence on previously unseen validation data (MAE<=6x10-2, MSE<=7x10-3) within a range of (+0. 1 to -0. 05) error-tolerance which is relevant and usable for aiding decision-support in a holoendemic setting.

Here we address the problem of Extended Depth-of-Field (EDoF) in thick blood film microscopy for rapid automated malaria diagnosis.
