Development of machine-learning models to diagnose influenza among international travellers based on symptoms and epidemiological information

Adding epidemiological information to the usual clinical information can improve diagnostic accuracy. Machine-learning models capable of handling a wide variety of data would be particularly beneficial for diagnosis. The knowledge gained should also be used to raise awareness among travellers.

Abstract

Adding epidemiological information to the usual clinical information can improve diagnostic accuracy. Machine-learning models capable of handling a wide variety of data would be particularly beneficial for diagnosis. The knowledge gained should also be used to raise awareness among travellers.
