Objective
Construct and verify a mathematical model to predict the incidence rate of dengue fever, according to environmental, health and epidemiological variables and in the presence of anti-dengue intervention actions. This translates into 4 specific objectives:
- Use historical data to identify and define environmental, health and epidemiological variables that allow the construction and evaluation of a mathematical model that predicts the incidence rate of dengue in the city of Asunción.
- Evaluate the generalization capacity of this model in similar communities of Paraguay.
- Identify the most appropriate algorithmic techniques to generate the mathematical model; design and implement software to help decision-making for the establishment actions against dengue according to the predicted incidence rate.
- Identify the most appropriate algorithmic techniques to generate the mathematical model; design and implement software to help decision-making and to establish actions against dengue according to the predicted incidence rate.
- Consolidate a network team to apply this methodology in related cases in Paraguay using the newly developed software.
