Dengue Vector Population Forecasting using Multi-source Earth Observation Products and Recurrent Neural Networks
2021
This article introduces a technique for using recurrent neural networks to forecast Ae. aegypti mosquito (Dengue transmission vector) counts at neighborhood-level, using Earth Observation data inputs as proxies to environmental variables. The model is validated using in situ data in two Brazilian cities, and compared with state-of-the-art multioutput random forest and k-nearest neighbor models. The approach exploits a clustering step performed before the model definition, which simplifies the task by aggregating mosquito count sequences with similar temporal patterns.
