- COVID-19 Next Day Trend ForecastPublication . Costa, Marcelo; Rodrigues, Margarida; Baptista, Pedro; Henriques, João; Pires, Ivan Miguel; Wanzeller, Cristina; Caldeira, FilipeHistorically, weather conditions are depicted as an essential factor to be considered in predicting variation infections due to respiratory diseases, including influenza and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome SARS-CoV-2, best known as COVID-19. Predicting the number of cases will contribute to plan human and non-human resources in hospital facilities, including beds, ventilators, and support policy decisions on sanitary population warnings, and help to provision the demand for COVID-19 tests. In this work, an integrated framework predicts the number of cases for the upcoming days by considering the COVID-19 cases and temperature records supported by a kNN algorithm.
