During a pandemic such as COVID19, we hope (but fail) to accurately estimate the incidence of the disease. In this paper, we propose a new approach to machine-learn models of the real incidence from readily available information (tests and detected cases)
journals.plos.org
Author summary In pandemic situations, adopting timely, effective preventive measures requires accurate and real-time estimates of the incidence of the disease. However, estimates of incidence are...
