Covid-19 Epidemiological Factor Analysis: Identifying Principal Factors with Machine Learning

Abstract: Based on a subset of Covid-19 Wave 1 cases at a time point near TZ+3m (April, 2020), we perform an analysis of the influencing factors for the epidemics impacts with several different statistical methods. The consistent conclusion of the analysis with the available data is that apart from the policy and management quality, being the dominant factor, the most influential factors among the considered were current or recent universal BCG immunization and the prevalence of smoking.

“…Hasan et al [90] utilized Q-Q plot and ARIMA model to present the death rate based on time-series data of different states of India. Many other researchers [91][92][93][94][95][96][97][98][99] have presented the applications of Machine Learning approaches for early diagnosis and predicting the trends of COVID-19. Wang et al [100] presented the epidemic trend using logistic and time-series prediction model called FbProphet.…”

“…Using neural network forecasting methods requires some analyst experience in setting neural network parameters but makes it possible to get more accurate forecast results. Paper [8] analyzes the tools used in the study of time series. The peculiarities of the application of different methods in the study of the influence of external factors on the time series are shown.…”
