• Title: Epidemic outbreak prediction using machine learning models
• Authors: Akshara Pramod, JS Abhishek, Dr. Suganthi K
• Abstract summary: In this article, we try to predict the epidemic outbreak (influenza, hepatitis and malaria) for the state of New York, USA using machine and deep learning algorithms. The algorithm takes historical data to predict the possible number of cases for 5 weeks into the future. Non-clinical factors like google search trends,social media data and weather data have also been used to predict the probability of an outbreak.

• Abstract: In today's world,the risk of emerging and re-emerging epidemics have increased.The recent advancement in healthcare technology has made it possible to predict an epidemic outbreak in a region.Early prediction of an epidemic outbreak greatly helps the authorities to be prepared with the necessary medications and logistics required to keep things in control. In this article, we try to predict the epidemic outbreak (influenza, hepatitis and malaria) for the state of New York, USA using machine and deep learning algorithms, and a portal has been created for the same which can alert the authorities and health care organizations of the region in case of an outbreak. The algorithm takes historical data to predict the possible number of cases for 5 weeks into the future. Non-clinical factors like google search trends,social media data and weather data have also been used to predict the probability of an outbreak.

  We introduce the first multilingual Event Extraction framework for extracting epidemic event information for a wide range of diseases and languages. Annotating data in every language is infeasible; thus we develop zero-shot cross-lingual cross-disease models. Our framework can provide epidemic warnings for COVID-19 in its earliest stages in Dec 2019 from Chinese Weibo posts without any training in Chinese.

  We develop a framework to extract and analyze epidemic-related events from social media posts. Experimentation reveals how ED models trained on COVID-based SPEED can effectively detect epidemic events for three unseen epidemics. We show that reporting sharp increases in the extracted events by our framework can provide warnings 4-9 weeks earlier than the WHO epidemic declaration for Monkeypox.

  We employ an epidemic model that incorporates a large, mobility-informed physical contact network as well as the distribution of misinformed individuals across counties derived from social media data. We present a worst-case scenario in which a heavily misinformed population would result in an additional 14% of the U.S. population becoming infected over the course of the COVID-19 epidemic.
