Abstract

In this work we present some mathematical models useful to predict the appearance of new COVID-19 waves. Models include: SEIR ordinary differential equations system with seasonal factors, time series, machine learning Artificial Neural Network for cumulative cases and Gaussian processes for incident data. The models are fitted, trained and tested by using data for COVID-19 weekly confirmed cases in Mexico. Predictions for 14 weeks in the future give us an early glimpse of the appearance of a new COVID 19 wave in Mexico at the end of 2022. R-squared measures (coefficient of determination) for these predictions are reported and some conclusions are drawn from the predictions.
