Title: Nowcasting COVID-19 incidence indicators during the Italian first outbreak Cord-id: p340n1et Document date: 2020_10_23
ID: p340n1et
Snippet: A novel parametric regression model is proposed to fit incidence data typically collected during epidemics. The proposal is motivated by real-time monitoring and short-term forecasting of the main epidemiological indicators within the first outbreak of COVID-19 in Italy. Accurate short-term predictions, including the potential effect of exogenous or external variables are provided; this ensures to accurately predict important characteristics of the epidemic (e.g., peak time and height), allowing
Document: A novel parametric regression model is proposed to fit incidence data typically collected during epidemics. The proposal is motivated by real-time monitoring and short-term forecasting of the main epidemiological indicators within the first outbreak of COVID-19 in Italy. Accurate short-term predictions, including the potential effect of exogenous or external variables are provided; this ensures to accurately predict important characteristics of the epidemic (e.g., peak time and height), allowing for a better allocation of health resources over time. Parameters estimation is carried out in a maximum likelihood framework. All computational details required to reproduce the approach and replicate the results are provided.
