Resumo

We used the Infodengue database of incidence and weather time-series, to train predictive models for the weekly number of cases of dengue in 790 cities of Brazil. To overcome a limitation in the length of time-series available to train the model, we proposed using the time series of epidemiologically similar cities as predictors for the incidence of each city. As Machine Learning-based forecasting models have been used in recent years with reasonable success, in this work we compare three machine learning models: Random Forest, lasso and Long-short term memory neural network in their forecasting performance for all cities monitored by the Infodengue Project.
