• Abstract: SARS-CoV2, which causes coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is continuing to spread globally and has become a pandemic. People have lost their lives due to the virus and the lack of counter measures in place. Given the increasing caseload and uncertainty of spread, there is an urgent need to develop machine learning techniques to predict the spread of COVID-19. Prediction of the spread can allow counter measures and actions to be implemented to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. In this paper, we propose a deep learning technique, called Deep Sequential Prediction Model (DSPM) and machine learning based Non-parametric Regression Model (NRM) to predict the spread of COVID-19. Our proposed models were trained and tested on novel coronavirus 2019 dataset, which contains 19.53 Million confirmed cases of COVID-19. Our proposed models were evaluated by using Mean Absolute Error and compared with baseline method. Our experimental results, both quantitative and qualitative, demonstrate the superior prediction performance of the proposed models.

  We present COVID-LSTM, a data-driven model based on a Long Short-term memory architecture for forecasting COVID-19 incidence at the county-level in the US. We use the weekly number of new cases as temporal input, and hand-engineered spatial features from Facebook to capture the spread of the disease in time and space. Over the 4-week forecast horizon, our model is on average 50 cases per county more accurate than the COVIDhub-ensemble.
