摘要

The last COVID-19 pandemic occurred in several unpredictable waves, making the classical compartmental models useless. To overcome this issue for a potential future pandemic, we have adopted a new approach based on unsupervised learning with the Gaussian Mixture Model. In this regard, we have applied our model to several datasets of infected populations from various countries around the world. The outcomes have demonstrated the flexibility and accuracy of this model in comparison to the SIR model and its derivatives. In this work, we rely on confirmed cases and death data for all countries, sourced from Our World in Data. Furthermore, our findings have led to the development of a new dashboard. Our results have been validated through statistical estimation and illustrated using the R language.
