Abstract

This paper studied the dynamics of Covid-19 in Egypt using machine learning algorithms and the epidemiological model SEIR. Among the machine learning models studied, two models showed promising results (SVR, SEGPR). Predictions of the spread of Covid-19 in the next 70 days conducted using these three approaches. The data of the fourth wave of Covid-19 in egypt taken from the WHO. The statistical measures R-Squared and RMSE used to evaluate the accuracy of these models.
