The study evaluates a deep‑learning model for pediatric pneumonia detection across three countries, testing not only discrimination but also probability calibration, fixed operating‑point transport, shortcut signals, and limited‑label recoverability. Using a DenseNet121 ensemble trained on Guangzhou data, the model achieved high internal AUROC (0.976) but performance dropped to 0.798 and 0.742 on Bangladeshi and Vietnamese datasets, respectively. Limited‑label adaptation with Platt recalibration restored sensitivity but introduced significant specificity variability, highlighting the need for comprehensive cross‑dataset evaluation.

The study evaluates a deep‑learning model for pediatric pneumonia detection across chest X‑ray datasets from three countries, assessing discrimination, calibration, operating‑point transport, shortcut signals, and limited‑label recovery. Using a frozen DenseNet121 ensemble trained on Guangzhou data, the model achieved high internal AUROC (0.976) but performance dropped when applied zero‑shot to Bangladesh (AUROC 0.798) and Vietnam (AUROC 0.742). Limited‑label adaptation with Platt recalibration restored sensitivity but introduced significant specificity variability, highlighting the need to evaluate multiple performance dimensions in cross‑dataset transport studies.
