Studies show that in analyses of health inequalities in the general population, the choice of indicators influence the magnitude of the observed inequalities.

A survey on heterogeneous transfer learning
Transfer learning has been demonstrated to be effective for many real-world applications as it exploits knowledge present in labeled training data from a source domain to enhance a model’s performance in a target domain, which has little or no labeled target training data. Utilizing a labeled source, or auxiliary, domain for aiding a target task can greatly reduce the cost and effort of collecting sufficient training labels to create an effective model in the new target distribution. Currently,
