We used the Infodengue database of incidence and weather time-series, to train predictive models for the weekly number of cases of dengue in 790 cities of Brazil. To overcome limitation in the length of time-series available to train the model, we proposed using the time series of epidemiologically similar cities as predictors for the incidence of each city. Machine Learning based forecasting models have been used in recent years with reasonable success. In this work we compare three machine learning models: Random Forest, Lasso and Long-short term memory neural network in their forecasting performance for cities monitored by the Infodengue Project.
