Predicting Dengue Fever Outbreaks in Sri Lanka

Predicting Dengue Fever Outbreaks in Sri Lanka

As part of an Omdena AI innovation project, I contributed to an AI-driven system that predicts dengue fever outbreaks in Sri Lanka. Using time-series analysis and machine learning, the system improves early-warning capabilities so public health authorities can respond sooner and allocate resources more efficiently.

Highlights

  • Time-series forecasting of dengue cases with Darts and Scikit-learn.
  • Model explanations with SHAP to show which factors drive predicted outbreaks.
  • Forecasts served through an interactive Streamlit dashboard.
