Abstract Though COVID-19 is no longer a pandemic but rather an endemic, the epidemiological situation related to SARS-CoV-2 virus developing at alarming rate, impacting every corner of world. The rapid escalation coronavirus has led scientific community engagement, continually seeking solutions ensure comfort and safety society. Understanding joint impact medical non-medical interventions on spread essential for making public health decisions that control pandemic. This paper introduces two novel hybrid machine-learning ensembles combine supervised unsupervised learning data classification regression. study utilizes publicly available outbreak potential predictive features in USA dataset, which provides information disease US, including from each 3142 US counties beginning epidemic (January 2020) until June 2021. developed hierarchical classifiers outperform single algorithms. best-achieved performance metrics task were Accuracy = 0.912, ROC-AUC 0.916, F1-score 0.916. proposed ensemble combining both allows us increase accuracy regression by 11% terms MSE, 29% area under ROC, 43% MPP metric. Thus, using approach, it possible predict number cases deaths based demographic, geographic, climatic, traffic, health, social-distancing-policy adherence, political characteristics with sufficiently high accuracy. reveals pressure most important feature analysis. Five other significant identified have influence spread. combined ensembling approach introduced this can help policymakers design prevention measures avoid or minimize threats future.

The Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic stunned the health systems with severe scarcities in hospital resources. In this critical situation, decreasing COVID-19 readmissions could potentially sustain capacity. This study aimed to select most affecting features of readmission and compare capability Machine Learning (ML) algorithms predict based on selected features. data 5791 hospitalized patients were retrospectively recruited from a registry system. LASSO feature selection algorithm was used important related readmission. HistGradientBoosting classifier (HGB), Bagging classifier, Multi-Layered Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector ((SVM) kernel = linear), SVM (kernel RBF), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) classifiers for prediction. We evaluated performance ML 10-fold cross-validation method using six evaluation metrics. Out 42 features, 14 identified as relevant predictors. XGBoost outperformed other models an average accuracy 91.7%, specificity 91.3%, sensitivity 91.6%, F-measure 91.8%, AUC 0.91%. experimental results prove that can satisfactorily Besides considering risk factors prioritized work, categorizing cases high reinfection make patient triaging procedure resource utilization more effective.

The COVID-19 epidemic poses a worldwide threat that transcends provincial, philosophical, spiritual, radical, social, and educational borders. By using connected network, healthcare system with the Internet of Things (IoT) functionality can effectively monitor cases. IoT helps patient recognize symptoms receive better therapy more quickly. A critical component in measuring, evaluating, diagnosing risk infection is artificial intelligence (AI). It be used to anticipate cases forecast alternate incidences number, retrieved instances, injuries. In context COVID-19, technologies are employed specific monitoring processes reduce exposure others.
