Cross-country learning boosts infectious disease forecasting accuracy

Researchers have developed a cross-country learning approach to improve infectious disease forecasting, particularly in nations with limited historical data. This method trains a single machine learning model on time series data from multiple European countries to forecast COVID-19 cases in Cyprus. The study found that incorporating data from other countries consistently enhanced forecasting accuracy compared to models trained solely on national data, offering a promising framework for disease prediction in data-scarce regions.
