Researchers develop AI system to predict dengue outbreaks two months ahead, aiding preparation.
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology have created a dengue early warning system that predicts outbreaks over two months in advance using AI and machine learning. The system identifies conditions like temperatures above 27°C, moderate rainfall, and humidity between 60% and 78% that increase dengue cases, while heavy rains reduce incidence by flushing out mosquito larvae. This tool aims to help local authorities prepare and mitigate the impact of dengue outbreaks, potentially reducing cases and deaths.
