• Abstract summary: coronavirus 2019 has spread throughout the globe infecting over 100 million people and causing the death of over 2.2 million people. There is an urgent need to study the dynamics of epidemiological models to gain a better understanding of how such diseases spread. Recent advances in machine learning techniques have given rise to neural networks with the ability to learn and predict complex dynamics at reduced computational costs.

• Abstract: The outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has now spread throughout the globe infecting over 100 million people and causing the death of over 2.2 million people. Thus, there is an urgent need to study the dynamics of epidemiological models to gain a better understanding of how such diseases spread. While epidemiological models can be computationally expensive, recent advances in machine learning techniques have given rise to neural networks with the ability to learn and predict complex dynamics at reduced computational costs. Here we introduce two digital twins of a SEIRS model applied to an idealised town. The SEIRS model has been modified to take account of spatial variation and, where possible, the model parameters are based on official virus spreading data from the UK. We compare predictions from a data-corrected Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory network and a predictive Generative Adversarial Network. The predictions given by these two frameworks are accurate when compared to the original SEIRS model data. Additionally, these frameworks are data-agnostic and could be applied to towns, idealised or real, in the UK or in other countries. Also, more compartments could be included in the SEIRS model, in order to study more realistic epidemiological behaviour.

  This paper introduces a novel, end-to-end diffusion-based risk prediction model, named MedDiffusion. It enhances risk prediction performance by creating synthetic patient data during training to enlarge sample space. It discerns hidden relationships between patient visits using a step-wise attention mechanism, enabling the model to automatically retain the most vital information for generating high-quality data.

  Prominent computational and mathematical models have been unreliable due to the complexity of the spread of infections. Deep learning models such as recurrent neural networks are well suited for modelling temporal sequences. We select states with COVID-19 hotpots in terms of the rate of infections and compare with states where infections have been contained or reached their peak. Our results show that long-term forecasts are promising which motivates the application of the method in other countries or areas.
