Quick Abstract

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), dengue is an endemic disease in more than 100 countries, with about 50 million people infected each year and 2.5 billion living in risk areas. Dengue requires a major research effort in countries affected by the disease, as its incidence is strongly determined by non-linear local processes, such as climatic conditions, social characteristics and habits of populations (Falcón-Lezama, 2016). In this scenario, forecasting models can be important tools for outbreak control, allowing health institutions to anticipate the mobilization of resources. In this article, we use deep learning, including long and short-term memory (LSTM) and dense layers of perceptrons to implement a forecast model of dengue cases for 5 epidemiological weeks ahead with a mean accuracy of 93%.
